Praise for ‘Tuning Up At Dawn’:

‘Modest and amusing, deceptively intelligent and witty…the best book in English on Spain since Gerald Brenan’s classic South From Granada’ Robert Carver, Daily Mail

‘…rolling, informal, anecdotal, colloquial.’ Daily Telegraph

Praise for ‘Bread and Oil’:

‘A book born out of obsession and filled like a scrapbook with wit and wisdom.’ Anthony Sattin, Sunday Times

‘A work of some scholarship. Reading it feels like stumbling upon a nugget of gold among the empty lager cans on Magalluf beach.’ Independent on Sunday

‘A fascinating and well written debut showing a rare combination of passion and irony.’ TLS

Tomas Graves is the son of Robert Graves. He lives in Deia, on the north coast of Majorca. He is a graphic designer, printer, musician and author of the acclaimed cookbook Bread and Oil.
