Summary
This book reflects on Spain as a sharply bounded country, shaped by the Pyrenees as much as by history and regional difference. It treats the frontier as a defining wall with only a few practical crossings, and contrasts ordinary travel routes with the more solitary experience of entering through mountain valleys. One remembered passage into Aragon is described in detail, with the writer moving from the last village into high, remote terrain at night.
