Memoirs of a Turkish Bear: and of the English Boy Who Loved Him - Softcover

An evocative mixture of a fictional story interspersed with actual events and photos taken by the author during a memorable journey with her husband across the wild mountains and along the exquisite coastline of Southern Turkey. She has also produced the atmospheric drawings. Boris the dancing bear and Ben, a simple English boy, recount their adventures from their first meeting to rediscovering each other at the end of the book, and as usual with Rozelle Raynes' wonderful use of the English language, their characters and those they travel with - Boris's courageous master and Ben's family - and those they meet on their journeys come vividly to life. The reader will quickly become attached to Boris and Ben as their heartwarming, frequently amusing and exciting accounts capture the attention.

Rozelle Raynes is also the author of 'The Tuesday Boys', '27 Kisses', Maid Matelot', 'Limehouse Lil' and 'A Boat Called Martha', but this is her first work of fiction.
