An affectionate look back at numerous characters that the author has come to know over his more than four decades of being married to a half-Greek girl. Some are funny, some are tragic, but all are life-affirming, in the sense that they've added immeasurably to his experience of Greece, both before and after he moved there to live permanently in August 2005. Each chapter is loosely based on one particular friend, group of friends or acquaintance of the author. This book gives a unique flavour of the country through the many types of ordinary, and the not-so ordinary people who live there. This is a second edition with six extra chapters over the first edition.
