Media Reviews
As a Spanish teacher I would highly recommend this guide. It has everything students might need to get a good mark on their exams. A look inside Almodovar's movie characters, the techniques he used, themes, vocabulary, social and historical context, some sample essays, etc. In my opinion this is a must for those ones who are studying Volver in their A-levels. -- Amazon reviewer
