Explore the mystery and charm of a tiny Andalucian village...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
An English writer lands in an obscure village in the mountains of Andalucía, and to his surprise, finds himself increasingly swept up in the charm of the characters of the village and their way of life as he researches the town's mysterious `healers' whose fame had spread to even Australia. The story is told with warmth and humor as the author finds himself increasingly involved in the lives of his new friends and in keeping the hamlet from slipping into obscurity. When he organizes an "event" to bring visitors to the town, things turn hilarious as the plans careen from spectacular to chaos and the results are hilarious. This is a wonderful book for anyone with an interest in discovering a taste of the real Spain and Spanish rural way of life.
