      abstract = {The appearance, more than sixty years after the Spanish  Civil War, of mass graves containing victims of Franco's  death squads finally broke the unwritten understanding  among Spaniards that their recent, painful past was best  left unexplored. Madrid-based journalist and 20-year  resident Tremlett embarked on a journey around the country  and through its history to discover why its people have  kept silent so long, and here unveils the tinderbox of  disagreements that mark the country today. Delving into  such questions as who caused the Civil War, why Basque  terrorists kill, why Catalans hate Madrid, and whether the  Islamist bombers who killed 190 people in 2004 dreamed of a  return to Spain's Moorish past, Tremlett finds the ghosts  of the past everywhere. He also offers trenchant  observations on Spanish life today, such as why Spaniards  dislike authority figures, but are cowed by a doctor's  white coat, and how women have embraced feminism without  men noticing.--From publisher description.},
