Mary Novakovich

Short Break: Rijeka

Award-winning writer Mary regularly returns to Croatia, where her parents were born. This makes her ideal to write about Rijeka, European Capital of Culture 2020 (p91). Elsewhere, she regularly contributes to the Guardian and the Telegraph, particularly on her other specialist subjects, France and Italy. British secret?

“It’s not so secret, but

I love the oysters and beach at Mersea Island.”
