an island fit for horses (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

"The perfect beach book." An island fit for horses will quickly have you reaching for a card and booking a holiday. If you're already on the beach you'll realise the characters are all around you. It's a beautifully written, enjoyable and standout novel that defies categorisation. Nick is, in some ways, typical Englishman. Although he sells used tanks, spends his money on classic cars that he hides from his wife and sponsors a polo team, which feeds her social aspirations. But his money didn’t bring class, or even a hint of maturity. He relishes the security of his comfort zone. "As good as a holiday" When his wife went on an extended cruise, Nick seized the moment to reawaken his fascination with the past, borrowing a friend's house in Greece. "What could possibly go wrong?" Soon immersed in island life, Nick somehow found himself organising a fundraising event for locals - a polo match on an island known for thousands of years as the most unsuitable place for horses. Ithaca. "More twists and turns than a Greek Island" Now Out of his depth, he called for help. After all, it was in a good cause and he had everyone's support. Or so he thought... A feelgood read from start to finish, this book will brighten up your day, wherever you are.
