In 'Viento del Sur', Ian Gibson presents the apocryphal memoirs of Richard Hill, an English Hispanist fascinated by Rubén Darío. Through his story, Hill takes us from his childhood Cornwall to southern Spain, where he finds his vital and professional maturity. This work is a nostalgic journey through passion and personal discovery, with Spain as a backdrop.
Ian Gibson is an Irish author and Hispanist known for his biographies of the poet Antonio Machado, the artist Salvador Dalí, the bibliographer Henry Spencer Ashbee, the filmmaker Luis Buñuel, and particularly his work on the poet and playwright Federico García Lorca, for which he won several awards, including the 1989 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for biography. His work, La represión nacionalista de Granada en 1936 y la muerte de Federico García Lorca was banned in Spain under Franco.
