A memoir that takes us on a journey around Spain to track a typical season for the country's biggest bullfighter, Francisco Rivera Ordonez. It shows the routine of this top bullfighter - the rituals, the risks, and the stage fright - and assesses the significance of bullfighting in the context of Spanish identity.
