Abstract:"Set in Barcelona in the years leading up to the financial crash of 2008, these poignant interlinked stories follow ordinary people whose lives will be changed forever. Like Robert Altman's film Short Cuts, Barcelona Dreaming is made up of three interconnected stories that are bound by time and place, and by the way characters weave in and out of them. A crime that remains unreported in one story has light shed on it in another. Exploring addiction, celebrity, racism, immigration, pornography, and self-delusion, Barcelona Dreaming has the feeling of a modern fable, underpinned by a longing for the inaccessible and a nostalgia for what is about to be lost"--
Set in the years leading up to the financial crash of 2008, three interlinked stories follow ordinary people whose lives in Barcelona will be changed forever. A crime that remains unreported in one story has light shed on it in another. Exploring addiction, celebrity, racism, immigration, pornography, and self-delusion, they have the feeling of a modern fable, underpinned by a longing for the inaccessible and a nostalgia for what is about to be lost. -- adapted from back cover
