El verano sangriento de Hemingway : Dominguín y Ordóñez. La última gran rivalidad del toreo vista por un Premio Nobel

$ 23.45
In the summer of 1959, Ernest Hemingway returned to Spain certain that he was about to witness something unforgettable. It wasn't just a bullfighting season: it was a classic drama, a struggle of pride, blood, art, and destiny. In the bullrings, Luis Miguel Dominguín and Antonio Ordóñez vied for supremacy in the art of bullfighting. At home, they shared meals and family; in the arena, honor was at stake. Hemingway, fascinated by the bravery and truth of the bull, found in that duel the subject of his last great Spanish novel. Dominguín, powerful, brilliant, a master of the spectacle. Ordóñez, pure, upright, tragic in his commitment. Two irreconcilable styles, two ways of understanding art and existence. Each pass was a declaration. Each thrust of the sword, a challenge. This book reconstructs, with narrative skill and historical rigor, that fierce summer that inspired the chronicles the Nobel laureate would publish under the title "The Dangerous Summer." But it goes beyond the confrontation in the bullring: it delves into the intimacy of the protagonists, their family tensions, a Spain that was awakening from tradition and making its way to modernity… and the increasingly somber gaze of a Hemingway who was also waging his own inner battle.
