Just finished James Chatto's fine novel The Greek For Love. I'm a big fan of Greek food, bouzouki music, and any story that involves refurbishing ancient houses into liveable space once again. This novel starts out as pure escapism with a hefty dose of mouth-watering descriptions of food, but moves ever so surreptitiously into something far more moving and at one point downright heartrending.
Enjoy the read, but be ready with a hanky!
For all her debt woes, Greece is still a place Carina and I dream of visiting one day! Reading this novel was a good tide-me-over until then.
Check it out!
