Description
Anna Nicholas's memoir tells the story of her decision to leave behind the chaos of London and start anew in sunny Mallorca. However, things don't quite go as planned, with unexpected events and encounters keeping her busy.
In this humorous and poignant tale, Anna finds herself navigating a series of zany misadventures, from a Mad Hatter's Tea Party to visits to haunted mansions. Meanwhile, she becomes determined to create the perfect haven for her menagerie of animals, with donkeys firmly at the top of her list.
As she settles into her new life, Anna discovers a treasure trove of letters from an elderly Mallorcan poet, whose words evoke a powerful story of bravery and sacrifice during the Spanish Civil War. A heartwarming and thought-provoking read, this memoir is a worthwhile read for anyone who loves animals, travel, or just a good story.
