Past: A Memoir

In July 2013, just as a full-blown diplomatic row was erupting between Britain and Spain over the Rock of Gibraltar, Joseph Sanchez collapsed and died while cycling in Taraguilla, a Spanish village twenty miles north of the border. In this honest and sensitively written memoir Gibraltarian author M. G. Sanchez relates the hardships his family endured while trying to repatriate his father's remains during one of the most acrimonious phases in recent Gibraltarian history. Part-family memoir, part-act of remembrance, PAST: A MEMOIR mixes personal reminiscences with political and historical commentary in a shifting, multi-layered narrative which explores - and vigorously upholds - what it means to be Gibraltarian.
