Book Reviews of Duende: A Journey Into the Heart of Flamenco
Book Review: Good Escapism
Summary: 4 Stars
There are a lot of reviews on this book but I want to throw in my two cents. I picked this up some what reluctantly as it seemed like it might veer into the realms of a romance novel. Well, it doesn't, but it is still a romanticized look at Flamenco and the surrounding culture. It is also a great read for those of us that are not ever going to head off to Spain, find a flamenco teacher and worry about food and shelter later. I always find stories of people that blindly chase their dreams very interesting, combined with my strong interest in Flamenco and this makes for good stuff! Don't take it as some sort of serious expose on Flamenco; it's an interesting story about an outsider, a directionless college grad in the grimy world of musicians (that happen to be Flamencos) that are trying to get by in the world. They are tied to their music by tradition and birth as much as the love of the music.
