Spanish Lessons - Lambert Derek

Popis knihy:

In Spanish Lessons, Lambert recounts his first year in Spain with affection for the country and its people, an unerring eye for the distinctive traits of Spanish village life, and a wry, self-deprecating wit that lends his story frequent hilarity. After a too-friendly realtor books him into a "hotel" that turns out to be a brothel, Lambert and his wife are shown a moldering white casita in a citrus grove that wins their hearts. Taking charge of the restoration of their new home, Lambert hires a roofer with a fear of heights, a plumber who is confounded by a blocked pipe and a plasterer who can't work without a blaring boom-box. He also clashes wills with a stubborn-as-a-mule-gardener, faces the region's first snowstorm in ages, battles a lemon-grove fire, and bumbles through Spanish lessons with a mocking classmate who challenges him to a public arm-wrestling competition... brožovaná, v angličtine,258 strán
