 | Spanish Lessons by Derek Lambert
Journalist Derek Lambert spent his career as a foreign correspondent covering conflicts around the world, but when he decided to settle down to a simpler life as a novelist, he chose Spain, the land that has inspired writers from Cervantes to Hemingway and Michener. 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. Unpredictable, filled with humorous incidents, and animated by memorable characters, SPANISH LESSONS presents a delightful portrait of off-the-tourist-track Spain. AUTHOR: Derek Lambert
