Or The Bull Kills You: the Valencian setting - Jason Webster

Either you kill the bull, or the bull kills you - traditional proverb.

Chief Inspector Max Cámara hates bullfighting, but one hot afternoon in Valencia he has to judge a festival corrida starring Spain's most famous young matador. That night he is back in the ring, and what he finds on the bloodstained sand shocks the city of Valencia to its core. As Cámara hunts his prey through the streets and bars, firecrackers echo for the festival of Fallas, and the town hall election. The anti-bullfighting campaigners and the breeders of prize beasts fight to the death. The bullring is a test of virility, but should it be a site of national pride or shame?

'One of the most attractive figures to enter recent detective fiction... Like the best detective stories, this book becomes a scrutiny of our most powerful drives and secrets' - Jane Jakeman, The Independent

@dnbro spain is a big country with different people, with different traditions, and the people who actually likes or celebrate bull fighting is a minority and what you do is generalize so FUCK YOU for being so stupid and rude

by the way i think the argument of this book is unoriginal and uninteresting.

FUCK SPAIN FOR BULL FIGHTING

FUCK SPAIN
