Since the end of Franco's regime in 1975, Spain has transformed itself into a democratic, multicultural society. Spanish writing today dares to challenge long-held cultural myths and issues that linger from the Spanish Civil War and Franco's dictatorship. The arrival of immigrants from Africa, Latin America, and Eastern Europe has also changed the way Spain sees itself. In this third of a special five-part series, host Eleanor Wachtel speaks with novelist, Antonio Muñoz Molina. His unusual and evocative book, Sepharad, is a moving account of exile, loss and sheer storytelling.
