Ghost of Spain: travels through Spain and its silent past by Giles Tremlett.
It's a fascinating book which covers Spanish history upto 2005. The main focus of the book is on the Franco years and Spanish attitudes and behaviours of today. This is a great book for anyone looking to get up to speed on visiting or planning to live in Spain. I quite enjoyed the descriptions of the artists, writers, poets, and politicians because it helped me greatly understand the Spanish mindset.
