Critics Review
Even if you hate tennis and couldn’t find Moldova on the map, you’ll be charmed. Utterly recommended
Even if you hate tennis and couldn’t find Moldova on the map, you’ll be charmed. Utterly recommended * FHM *Surprisingly touching as well as incredibly funny * The Oxford Times *I expected to find this book funny, which it is; I didn’t expect to find it illuminating and rather moving, which it is too * Daily Mail *This immensely readable account, enriched with moments of true hilarity is, quite honestly, a bit of a gem * Living Abroad Magazine *
