How did the son of a Catalan blacksmith become a world-famous architect? The first years of Gaud?'s life were challenging. Because of an illness, young Gaud? couldn't attend school and was often alone. Many of his days were spent out in nature, which he would later call his great teacher. Even during his training as an architect in Barcelona, his teachers were puzzled, wondering: is he a \"genius or a fool?\" Many considered his unusual ideas eccentric, sometimes even crazy. But Gaud? was simply ahead of his time. His buildings are now a UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) World Heritage Site. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With an insightful eye into the world of an inspired genius, award-winning author Susan B.
