MANANA MANANA：ONE MALLORCAN SUMMER

Book ID/图书代码： 12553605B10545

English Summary/英文概要： Having battled and succumbed to the manana pace of rural Mallorca, spring sees Peter Kerr and his family relaxing into a supposedly simpler way of life, growing oranges on their little farm, Ca’s Mayoral. However, even after the trials, tribulations and triumphs of their initiation, Spain has not yet finished with them. Embarrassing subtleties of the language, brushes with the local police, the unfortunate outcome of a drinking session; surprises are aplenty to test the resolve, stamina and, perhaps more importantly, the sense of humour of this venturesome emigre family. Their eccentric and colourful new friends are always on hand to help out - for better or worse - and add spice to this account of tranquilo life.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 這家人生活在西班牙小島上的美麗山城裡，因為語言的隔閡，及生活節奏的差異，發生了許多令人啼笑皆非的事情，但也處處充滿讓人感動的人情味。渡過餓夢般的冬季，夏季生活還是為他們帶來不斷的驚奇。鄰居總是令他們匪夷所思，例如他家隔壁一個牧羊的男子，竟然嗜吃長蟲的橘子，甚至深深迷信如此「進補」，會讓他的性生活「功力大增」…彼得˙柯爾詼諧幽默的筆觸，寫出了《馬約卡島四季系列》的四本旅遊文學書，分為春，夏，秋和冬四季，描述他們一家人在馬約卡島生活的點滴，讓人捧腹。（TT）

About the Author/作者介绍： Peter Kerr was born in Lossiemouth, County Moray, but since his early childhood has lived (on and off) in East Lothian.
Having left school, Peter joined the Civil Service as an Executive Officer - but given his flamboyant and dynamic nature, he found the role inhibiting and far too conventional!
