Inside the Tortilla: Recipes for Living Another Life (The Radical Routes Series Book 2)

Not all those that wander are lost...

Under the unforgiving heat of the Spanish sky and in a country scorched by tourism, one man goes in search of recipes for living another life, accompanied by a chef who can only look at the ground and a hound who always looks behind everything. They reveal another another history of people, food culture though the magnifying glass of one small town.

Reviews for Inside the Tortilla:

"I'd recommend this to anyone visiting Spain regardless of whether they are going to discover the country or to turn red near Malaga; at worst it made me feel a more authentic tourist. At best, if helped me see a country."

"Absolute delight, this book will appeal to all who crave the authentic earthy experience of living in another culture. Funny moving heart-warming, great story, real characters, marvellous hound."

"Like Spain's most famous dish, Inside the Tortilla is a book that looks simple at first glance, but in reality has much more to it than meets the eye."

Part 1. The Slow Route Home: Miguel has sold his truck and bought a mule. Everyone in the village believes he is crazy, but Miguel follows a wisdom far greater than those that mock him. Miguel's neighbours, his dog and the strange neighbour with the burnt trees are about to learn the benefits of going slow.

Part 2, Inside the Tortilla, takes the Hound to the very heart of Andalusia, and a small town, tucked in a valley between the cities of Granada, Seville and Malaga. There he is introduced to a cast of characters and discovers a series of recipes for another way off living.

In Part 3, The Way of the Hound, and on route to that great kennel in the sky, the Hound pauses to reflect back on what he has learned, and what he needed to say to the human race - from a rather low, and four-legged perspective.
