Thank God For Empty Churches

Simon Gandolfi's past books range through main stream, thrillers and travel. He brings all three of these talents together in this graphic and atmospheric account of the life and loves of a successful portrait painter, Ben Cobold, whose experiences range from the wild 1960s in Ibiza and Morocco, Chile at the time of the military coup to today's Cuba. Gandolfi writes with humor and sympathy and understanding of his protagonists be they in or out of bed, fleeing from Pinochet's police or encountering the leaden authority of Castro's Socialist paradise.
