A Season in Spain

by Andrew Grant-Adamson, Lesley Grant-Adamson

This is Lesley and Andrew Grant-Adamson's account of the time they lived in the Alpujarra region of Spain between Granada and the Mediterranean. Through their personal experiences, the Grant-Adamsons were drawn into the customs, traditions and economic issues affecting life in the Alpujarra. They recount the reaction of the locals to the arrival into their rural community of an inexperienced English couple, the crises and triumphs that accompanied the olive harvest, the colour and pageantry of local fiestas, and the constant problems of drought and dry rivers.

Writing was disjointed and a distraction for me. My affection for Spain kept me going.

Meh. Maybe if I liked Spain more or if this were written by a woman.
