Home in Andalusia

Home in Andalusia

By Roy Nash

Oleander Press

Roy Nash’s buccaneering life and times have induced him to acquire several different homes in Andalusia over the last forty years. In 1966, at the age of 29, with an income of £10 a week from property, he decided to quit England and find a place ‘where the livin’ is easy’. Southern Spain fitted the bill perfectly. He came to the horseshoe-shaped bay known from its conformation as La Herradura, due south from Granada. It proved to be love at first sight.

The characters he meets and introduces in this captivating environment include a handful of foreign residents, colourful groups of hippies, and a smattering of American draft-dodgers. He describes how they bought the 'Swinging Sixties', with their pop music culture, drugs and 'free-love', to a part of the world where people's morals had hitherto been rigidly controlled by Franco's church and state. His story will fascinate anyone who has ever dreamed of living in Spain, and those who have already taken the plunge.
