Over sixteen years, Michael Crouser visited the bullrings of Spain, Mexico, Ecuador, and France, capturing the dark spectacle of the bullfights and the passions of the crowds who follow them. Images from many bullfights create a singular, compelling fight in a narrative form.
The book features an introduction in English and Spanish by renowned Peruvian author Mario Vargas Llosa, recounting the childhood memories of his first corrida de toros and his personal philosophy on the contemporary bullfight.
