It's All Greek to Me!: A Tale of a Mad Dog and an Englishman, Ruins, Retsina - And Real Greeks

In It's All Greek to Me!: A Tale of a Mad Dog and an Englishman, Ruins, Retsina-and Real Greeks, the Mole family embarks on a search for a piece of Greek paradise. Dreaming of a whitewashed house with a blue door and shutters on an unspoiled island in a picturesque village, the Mole's are in for a surprise. With a beautiful view and a persuasive local prompt, the family impulsively purchases a tumbledown ruin on a hillside with no water, no electricity, no roof, no floor, no doors, no windows and twenty years of goat dung! In a charming saga of sun, sea, sand, and cement, John Mole's witty prose tells the tale of the labors around fixing up his own Arcadia; along with introducing readers to a warm, generous and garrulous cast of characters who help (and occasionally hinder) his progress. It's All Greek To Me! provides a glimpse of timeless rural Greece, and it is not to be missed!
