In the early 1960s Emma Tennant's parents, on a cruise, spotted a magical bay and decided to build a house there. This book is the story of that house, Rovinia, set above the bay in Corfu where legend has it Ulysses was shipwrecked and found by Nausicaa, daughter of King Alcinous. It is also the story of the couple who have been at Rovinia since the feast in the grove that followed the roof-raising-Maria, a miraculous cook and the presiding spirit of the house, and her husband, Thodoros-and of the inhabitants of the local village, high on the hill above the bay. Tennant offers us the delights of quotidian adventures-salt water in the well, roads to nowhere, collapsing walls-all hilariously presented. That the house is still lived in and loved, with new generations coming to understand the delights of Corfu, is a tribute to the… Read More

Description:
London: John Murray, 2010 Book. New. Trade Paperback. 1st Pbk Edition. Patrick Leigh Fermor (1915-2011) was a war hero whose exploits in Crete are legendary, and above all he is widely acclaimed as the greatest travel writer of our times, notably for his books about his walk across pre-war Europe, A Time of Gifts and Between the Woods and the Water; he was a self-educated polymath, a lover of Greece and the best company in the world. Artemis Cooper has drawn on years of interviews and conversations with Paddy and his closest friends as well as having complete access to his archives. Her beautifully crafted biography portrays a man of extraordinary gifts - no one wore their learning so playfully, nor inspired such passionate friendship. 448 pp..

Description:
London / Athens: Doric Publications, 1977 Book. Fine. Soft cover. 2nd Edition. "The efforts of the British philhellenes in the Greek War of Independence have never been forgotten by the Greeks. The British themselves, however, have been slow to honour their fellow-countrymen who fought for the first of the new nation states to achieve independence in the nineteenth century. In this account of the movement at home and in the field, Mr. Woodhouse shows that it did not consist merely of Byron plus an entourage of eccentrics, ruffian, and romantics, though there were plenty of all three. They were part of an international movement of protest in which nationalism, religion, radicalism and commercial greed all played a part, as well as sentiment and pure heroism. This is an attempt to widen the context." 264p. bibliography. index.
