Stray Cats: Life in Madrid Through 17 Voices

Seventeen long-term, foreign residents of Madrid were invited to write about their trials, triumphs, loss and passion for the capital of Spain. Here are unique voices and experiences that tumble through the pages with sincerity and style. Forty years of memories, from the period of post-democratic reconstruction to the present. This is Madrid from the inside; a city always on the move, ever changing and changing lives forever. Together with thirty-six evocative black and white photos that blend poetically the past with the present, Stray Cats captures nostalgia and a sense of place, transporting the reader to a Madrid they never knew existed.
