Viva Mallorca!: One Mallorcan Autumn (Peter Kerr)

by PeterKerr (Author)

Synopsis

Autumn has arrived for the Kerrs on their fruit farm on the island of Mallorca...

The year's third season, `winter spring', finds Peter, under the sharp eye of his long-suffering wife Ellie, struggling to shake off the relaxed Spanish tranquiloness that he has now mastered all too well. Old friendships have been established, and new ones are found as the Kerrs are introduced to Mallorca's champagne-swilling Filthy-Rich-Set and their eyes are opened by just how the other half lives...

Mosquito-repellent vinegar baths, delicious Mallorcan food, and with background support from dogs, donkeys, geckos, parrots and canaries, this is an autumn such as they've never known - Y Viva Mallorca!

Viva Mallorca is the third book in the award-winning series by Peter Kerr, following Snowball Oranges and Manana, Manana.
