Granada, the city of the Alhambra Palace and the last Moorish kingdom of Andalucia, has a special place in our imagination, whether we have visited it or not.
As well as being a city of exceptional beauty and interest, it is a symbol for all of us of what happens when different civilizations meet.
That is why Granada, City of My Dreams, in the words of the author, was written not only as a guide but as a book about Granada for the nun in Norway sitting in her armchair and wishing to travel there in the mind.
For, what fascinates us about this universal city is not only its monuments but its marvellous story, the encounter between Moor and Christian, gypsy and Jew, medieval and Renaissance, glistening snow and Mediterranean sun, in this green balcony of Europe overlooking the naked shores of Africa.
Lawrence Bohme, poet, illustrator and curious traveller, has filled these pages with luminous descriptions and drawings, the culmination of forty years of wanderings through the palaces and labyrinths of his adopted homeland, Granada.
