Publisher's Synopsis
'Making Friends - A Spanish Memoir' is a book of reminiscences based on real people and events, commencing in the late summer of the year 2000. A humorous, informative and sometimes poignant account of a young Englishman's discovery of a whole new world beyond the boundaries of the expat teaching community, his friendships with Antonio, Dominic, Pedrín and others at first complicate then enrich his life in the Spanish city of Murcia. In an account that takes us from seedy bars, through rock group rehearsals, to valiant attempts to help the eccentric and rather unstable Antonio sell village houses and thus restore his self-esteem, the author makes his own journey of self-discovery which leaves him a wiser, more empathetic man. ***Please 'look inside' to sample the book before purchasing.***
