In the Garlic

In The Garlic, taken from the Spanish idiom en el ajo meaning 'in the know', is a quirky vibrant book packed with helpful information, insights, anecdotes, stories, jokes and fascinating nuggets that illuminate the mysteries of everyday life in Spain. From saints' days to sausages, bureaucrats to bollycaos, languages to lotteries, Galicia to the Guardia Civil and telephone companies to Pérez the tooth mouse, it is an essential companion for anyone living in or moving to Spain - or, indeed, for anyone with a simple passion for the country and its people.

Essential items revealed include 

• The one law of Spanish bureaucracy you need to know.
  



• The one person you can't do without.
  



• The one time of day you should never do business.

Mr Garlic takes the reader, in leisurely fashion, through the illustrated cross-referenced entries boldly set out in user-friendly format so that by the end of the book the following assessment by "The Costa del Sol News" can be fully appreciated:

"In The Garlic takes your understanding of Spain to a new level. Thoroughly recommended."

Next time someone asks about the hidden connection between sausages and thieves or, more intriguingly, relates the worst thing that can be done with a communion wafer, the no.1 place to source or check the information is clear!
