About this listen

On Thursday, August 28, 1947, a 30-year-old millionaire named Manuel Laureano Rodriguez—Manolete—and a Miura bull named Islero killed each other. The Death of Manolete recounts the extraordinary life and demise of this young bullfighter, from the childhood that made the Spanish boy and the sacrifice that made the man to the girl who brought him love and the acclaim that brought him incredible success. A symbol of Latin pride, valor, and chivalry, Manolete fired the Latin imagination as no one had done since El Cid. But the crowds owned him, and on one fateful afternoon in the town of Linares, he did their bidding—and an untimely death put out the brightest flame in Spain.
