Critic reviews

"Hugely enjoyable book! If you've spent any time in Greece, you will laugh out loud. Wonderful beach read!"—Irena Karafilly, author of Arrested Song, and The Captive Sun

"Right from the beginning of this book, you're brought into the midst of a Greek family ... quirks and all. A really delightful read and you'll come out of it feeling as if you've been in both the heart and the craziness of Greece."—Alex Morton, author

A wonderful tale of Greece and its people

Still in the afterglow of a return from my second trip to Greece with my husband...I found this book suggested on a blog site about Greece. It didn't disappoint. It makes me want to visit the many parts of Greece mentioned. I've been lucky to visit 4 islands, Nafplio, and Athens. Now would love to check out Glyfada. The author clearly has so much love for Greece, his wife, and his life. It's a beautiful book and I look forward to the rest.
