As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning

  • ISBN: 0140033181
  • Author: Laurie Lee
  • Description:
    It was 1934. The young man walked to London from the security of the Cotswolds to make his fortune. He was to live by playing the violin and by a year's labouring on a London Building site. Then, knowing one Spanish phrase, he decided to see Spain. For a year he tramped through a country in which the signs of impanding civil war were clearly visible. Thiry years later Laurie Lee has captured the atmosphere of the Spain he saw with all the freshness and beauty of a young man's vision, creating a lyrical and lucid picture of the beautiful and violent country that was to involve him enextricably.
