Bringing Spain to you

Bring a deckchair indoors, grab a nice cold drink, sit back and read!

If you can't make it to the beach right now, treat yourself to a little taste of Andalucia in the form of one of these books.  All are set in the part of Spain that is dearest to us and all make a great way to while away a guilt-free afternoon of enforced relaxation.  Links to Amazon Kindle store are included here.

The Return by Victoria Hislop, a captivating new novel of family, love, and betrayal set against a backdrop of civil war, flamenco, and fiery Spanish passion. The author of the beloved international bestseller The Island, Victoria Hislop now transports the reader to Granada, Spain, in a time of historic turmoil. The Return is a colorful and spellbinding saga of a family inspired by music and dance, only to be torn apart by fragile hearts and divided loyalties during the bitter war that brought the dictator Generalissimo Francisco Franco to power.

Platero and I by Juan Ramón Jiménez. This lyric portrait of life—and the little donkey, Platero—in a remote Andalusian village is the masterpiece of Juan Ramón Jiménez, the Spanish poet awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize for Literature.

Costa del Churros by Isabella May. 

The rain in Spain doesn't mainly fall on the plain…  Brits abroad Belinda, Julia, Laura and Georgina need more than the sweetness of churros with chocolate dipping sauce to save them from their unsavoury states of affairs.

Happy reading while you dream of being back on the beach...
