Great book but too long
I enjoyed this book - even though it was too long. It gives a great account of the life in northern Spain approximately 150 years ago. Interesting to see what topics preoccupied people in those times. Largely, of course, people have stayed the same, and the anxieties 150 years ago, are all too familiar to us living in the late 2020’ties. Even though I suffered a bit reading this book (because it was almost endless), it was still worth my time, and, in many ways, it is as good as any book can be.
