One of the best books of the year

- Jeanette Winterson,

<i>On Bullfighting</i> casts an unofficial eye over a world of male exploit; the public spectacles are treated with a fresh particularity, the inner landscapes of pain with an ardent, high-risk honesty

An ecclectic and fascinating cultural history

Observer

A strange and beautiful book

- Michael Ignatieff,

Bullfighting - the ultimate spectator sport.Acclaimed novelist A. L. Kennedy unpeels the layers and explains the mechanics before dissecting them with surgical precision. Beyond the theatre, the costume and the well-worn plot she focuses on the fact that a man faces his death while a crowd looks on. The result is a startling confrontation with her own, and mankind's, mortality.
