Us with Us: Cadaqués, it all happened, but it might not be true.

More about the book

This isn't a history book or a guidebook. It's not a novel or a simple diary. It's not a travel book, a collection of poetry or a comic book. But you could say it contains a trace element of each. Honest, self-deprecating and occasionally funny, Us with Us offers an original take on one of Catalonia's most celebrated towns. Using a unique format, it tells the story, and the stories, of a place immortalized by Dalí and brutalized by pirates. It's a portrait which brings the town to life with a roll call of famous characters ranging from Federico García Lorca to Pablo Picasso and Mick Jagger, at a time when its bohemian sunshine was increasingly overshadowed by politically bad weather.
