To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is a low, squat, prison-like circus of stone, stuccoed andwhitewashed, with no pretence of ornament or architectural effect. Thereis no nonsense whatever about it. It is built for the killing of bullsand for no other purpose. Around it, on a day of battle, you will findencamped great armies of the lower class of Madrilenos, who, being atfinancial ebb-tide, cannot pay to go in. But they come all the same, tobe in the enchanted neighborhood, to hear the shouts and roars of thefavored ones with...in, and to seize any possible occasion for getting in. Who knows? A caballero may come out and give them his check. An Englishlady may become disgusted and go home, taking away numerous lords whoseplaces will be vacant. The sky may fall, and they may catch four reals'worth of larks. It is worth taking the chances.
One does not soon forget the first sight of the full coliseum. In thecentre is the sanded arena, surrounded by a high barrier. Around thisrises the graded succession of stone benches for the people; thennumbered seats for the connoisseurs; and above a row of boxes extendingaround the circle.
