A Wander Through the Village
(2016)The Greek Village Handbook / The Eastern Fly and Other Stories
(A book in the Greek Village series)
A collection of stories by Sara Alexi
The Greek Village Handbook
Grigoris sits under his olive tree, reluctant to go home and face the wrath of his wife, Lena... He's not been able to sell the oranges this year, and she's going to furious!!! Just then, a little green fly lands on his shirt, and it gives him an idea - something he can use to explain why the crop failed, and deflect the blame.
It's a bold lie, but it might just work...
A Wander Through the Village is a collection of short stories, in which we meet old friends and some new ones.
In addition, the book is a guide to the Greek village, listing the characters and Greek phrases that are used in each of the first fifteen books, as well as notes about what inspired me to write each of them, what I was hoping to achieve in the process and a set of questions for book clubs. I hope you find these interesting.
Oh, and there are maps of the village and Orino Island, too!
And finally - because I could not resist - I have included some wonderful pictures of beautiful Greece.
If you haven't read all the books in the series, please note that the handbook section includes spoilers...
Happy reading,
