This is a terrific addition to Marjory McGinn’s Peloponnese Series。 I was delighted to read more about the marvellously eccentric Foteini and her ‘catwalk’ donkey Riko。 However， this is so much more than a travel memoir as it describes Marjory’s lifelong interest and love of Greece and what sparked her passion for this country and its people。 She shares with us her insightful observations on the aftermath of the Greek Civil war and on the more recent ‘bail out’ by the EU and its consequences。 Wh This is a terrific addition to Marjory McGinn’s Peloponnese Series。 I was delighted to read more about the marvellously eccentric Foteini and her ‘catwalk’ donkey Riko。 However， this is so much more than a travel memoir as it describes Marjory’s lifelong interest and love of Greece and what sparked her passion for this country and its people。 She shares with us her insightful observations on the aftermath of the Greek Civil war and on the more recent ‘bail out’ by the EU and its consequences。 What a terrific writer she is with a great eye for detail and a gift for telling a tale。Balancing this is a fascinating mixture of historical detail and entertaining stories。 Some of these had me heading off to do a bit of research。 There are tales to make you laugh and some which will touch your heart。 As a bonus each chapter is headed by some lovely photos。 Brilliant stuff。 Highly recommended。 。。。more

EnjoyableThe stories are insightful on why people want to escape to a different country， live a different life but some just don't manage to reinvent themselves。All of the previous books tell a good story of culture， characters， and a history of Greece that is important to remember and not forget。 Throw in a unique dog and individual village people and you have an enjoyable experience。 EnjoyableThe stories are insightful on why people want to escape to a different country， live a different life but some just don't manage to reinvent themselves。All of the previous books tell a good story of culture， characters， and a history of Greece that is important to remember and not forget。 Throw in a unique dog and individual village people and you have an enjoyable experience。 。。。more
