But she is harbouring a bizarre dream to open a luxury cattery on the island - unbeknownst to her long-suffering family.Life in the mountains is never uneventful as she gets to grips with phantom sheep, midnight snail hunts and Catalan lessons. Work also has its challenges, as she juggles demanding and often neurotic clients between Mayfair and Manhattan and is hotly pursued by lucrative deals. But increasingly Anna finds herself craving the simple life of her Spanish idyll because, as she discovers, you can take the girl out of Mallorca but you can't take Mallorca out of the girl.Wickedly irreverent, lovingly observed and filled with eccentric characters, Cat on a Hot Tiled Roof celebrates the wonders of Mallorcan life.

Life in rural Mallorca continues to hold its magic for Anna and her family.When not juggling work deadlines, chatting with Johnny the toad or managing her ever-growing menagerie, Anna sets off to explore the lesser-known areas of the island.On her cultural and historic voyage of discovery she visits fig, olive and snail farms, a textile mill and a sobrasada sausage factory, and learns of Mallorca's rich literary legacy. While marathon training in the picturesque Tramuntana mountains, she is spooked when delving into the myths and Moorish legends that still seem to haunt the surrounding hills. As she examines the ancient remains of ice houses and huts of charcoal burners, she hears tales of the terrifying brigands that ruled the area in the seventeenth century. And she even finds time to hike the Camino de Santiago along the way...

At the tender age of ninety, my dearest wish has been to publish my remaining poems before I depart this world, and so I register my name on the list of published poets, thus avoiding my life’s work from disappearing in the midst of time. My grandmother on my father’s side wrote poetry, so I guess I inherited from her this wonderful gift. Unfortunately, she didn’t publish her work so when she died, her poems died with her. Sadly, I didn’t get the chance or opportunity to read any of her work. What a loss! So, dear reader, I trust you will enjoy the words of my heart, mind, and soul—happy reading!
