About this product

Product Information

'How pleasant.to meet Mr Durrell, gloating over his enjoyment of a Greek island! His book is too various to be summarised: it expresses a poet's intoxication with landscape, a humanist's appetite for history, and an eye for character worthy of a novelist. He is witty, he is shrewd, he is effectively eloquent. He wafts us over a lively range of periods and subjects, communicating his gusto for Greek ruins, wild flowers, Patmian monks, forged bus tickets, the violet, alluring sea, and pilgrimages embellished by traditional dancing beside barbecues.He excites a longing to leave for Rhodes at once.' Raymond Mortimer, Sunday Times

    It's a book so nothing much to say about "the product". Just that I did not expect the type to be so small. It made me squint but still enjoyed it.
