  abstract: The celebrated art nouveau architect Antoni Gaudí was a contradictory figure, deeply religious and politically right-wing. He nevertheless created revolutionaly, lyrical buildings. This book explores Gaudí's life, work and influences, from Catalan nationalism to the Industrial Revolution. Michael Eaude expertly guides readers through Gaudí's great works, including the Sagrada Família, which attracts millions of tourists to Barcelona each year and examines his monumental life, from the architect's provincial upbringing in Reus to his time in Barcelona, where he became a dandy whose only attempt at marriage was rejected. Gaudí later suffered a nervous breakdown, became obsessively religious and fused Gothic, Baroque and Orientalist architecture into his unique style.
