I'd liked Drysdale's book about Madagascar, so picked this one up when I saw it for sale at a used bookstore a while ago. A strictly socio-linguistic book would have been too dry, but this one, with it's travel-narrative framework was exactly what I was looking for. Barcelona came off as a scary place - they were burgled twice in a short period of time there.
