Reseña del libro "Portugal and the Algarve now and Then (en Inglés)"

Jenny Grainer was born in Portsmouth, England but has lived in the Algarve since 1968. This collection of stories, are the memories of Jenny's life, and an authentic version of Portugal's growth and change as seen through the eyes of an English woman. The reader will be shocked, surprised, amused and charmed by her version of events. I came to live in the Algarve in 1965 and have watched an undiscovered corner of Southern Europe turn into the thriving tourist-orientated Province it is today. Jenny's stories evoked many memories of those early days, when some of us were fortunate enough to share the lifestyle of farming and fisher-folk, whose land we invaded. For me, reading her book was a pleasantly nostalgic experience. - Harry Warner, Santa Barbara de NexeRequired reading is this book of Algarvean short stories... nothing escapes her ears or eyes. Her style of writing is fresh and racy; I could not put the book down... - The Portugal NewsJenny Grainer's collection of very personal memories is an entertaining and absorbing read for any English-speaking tourist or resident who wants to know more about the Algarve's recent history. - Algarve 123 ReportHer wonderful descriptions of the characters she met are both sad and amusing and, to see Portugal through the eyes of a young Englishwoman, is at times a moving experience. - The Euro Weekly NewsJenny's book is a 'must read', as there are lots of short stories about the past and present of Portuguese life. - The Algarve ResidentThe wonders of life on the Algarve before it attracted the attention of developers have been recaptured... - The Portsmouth News
