This book has re-awakened my love of travel writing. It does what any good travel book should do, not only do you feel that you are there, it makes you want to go to that place at the first opportunity!
This is a seductive evocation of Greek island life and an honest exploration of what it means to try to live differently. The book is about diving into the unknown and staying afloat, even when the enticing blue waters of the Aegean become clouded and choppy. A wonderful escape for any armchair traveller.
I also enjoyed reading the author’s blog after finishing the book: https://octopus-in-my-ouzo.blogspot.com/?m=1
