LAWRENCE DURRELL
the GREEK ISLANDS (1978)
OUTLINE
White-washed houses drenched in pink bougainvillea; dazzling seascapes and rugged coastlines; colourful harbours in quaint fishing villages; shady olive and cypress groves; terraces bathed in the Aegean sun ... The Greek islands conjure up a treasure-chest of images - but nobody brings them to life as vividly as Lawrence Durrell.
REVIEWS
Like long letters from a civilized and very funny friend - the prose as luminous as the Mediterranean air he loves. ― Time.
'A magician.' - The Times.
Nobody knows the Greek islands like Durrell. ― New York Times.
