Imagine the sight of six 1,300-pound bulls barreling towards you. Would you cower in fear, or would you embrace it? As a 10-year-old American transplant, Ander describes his tumultuous childhood growing up in the hills of the Basque Country, Spain’s northern region. He takes us on a parallel journey to embrace his heritage, amidst the chaos of becoming a bull runner in Pamplona. His formative years are filled with heartache and pain, as Ander is exposed to a world unknown. Sparked by his grandfather and the writings of Ernest Hemingway, his passion for the running of the bulls comes to a head as a young adult, living in the United States. This book is for anyone who has ever felt lost, misunderstood, out of place, and counted out.
