Shame on me....I had never looked at the books list before.
I have just had a browse and ordered a couple off Amazon.
The Agatha Christie and also Wild Olives by William Graves.
I am looking forward to my trip back in time to old Mallorca.
 
'Bread and Oil' by William Graves' brother Tomas is also a fascinating read about the Mallorcan culinary tradition - I feel much more confident when I buy food in the Pollensa market now. It gives you a real feel for the character of the place as well as the food.
 
William and Thomas also have a very gifted sister, Lucia Graves!:D Her book "A Woman Unknown, Voices from a Spanish life". Virago ISBN 1-86049-553-2, is also highly recommended.She writes about her childhood on Majorca and gives us portraits of different women she meet all full of deep insight. It is a picture of Majorca and Barcelona from the time of Franco until now. You can find some minireviews on books about Mallorca and Spain on my site MallorcaBo Empty File
