A proposito di questo titolo
'Victoria Hislop writes so vividly about the Med, you can almost feel the scorching heat' Good Housekeeping
Week after week, the postcards arrive, addressed to a name Ellie does not know, with no return address, each signed with an initial: A.
With their bright skies, blue seas and alluring images of Greece, these cartes postales brighten her life. After six months, to her disappointment, they cease. But the montage she has created on the wall of her flat has cast a spell. She must see this country for herself.
On the morning Ellie leaves for Athens, a notebook arrives. Its pages tell the story of a man's odyssey through Greece. Moving, surprising and sometimes dark, A's tale unfolds with the discovery not only of a culture but also of a desire to live life to the full once more.
Beloved, bestselling author Victoria Hislop's Cartes Postales from Greece is fiction illustrated with photographs that make this journey around Greece, already alive in the imagination, linger forever in the mind.

Recensioni della critica
Victoria Hislop's love affair with Greece continues, bringing the country triumphantly to life . . . [her] imaginative and compelling stories paint a remarkable portrait of Greece and its history
Hislop has woven colour photographs of the stunning Greek landscape into her narrative. I enjoyed being transported to Greece on Hislop's wings of words and vivid descriptions
When it comes to tales about Greece, Hislop is an undisputed queen - and this is easily her best novel yet
A lavish love letter to Greece
Hislop's passionate love of the country breathes from every page
This beautiful novel is illustrated with gorgeous photos to really bring the country to life
A tender love story that will make you wish your own summer holiday wasn't a distant memory
A beautiful tale of love, struggle and redemption (Cathy Rentzenbrink)
A discerning fly-on-the-wall view of the country, a heady mix of poetic licence and gravitas. . . Greece works its magic in Hislop's latest ode to the country
A tantalising glimpse of a country far removed from the usual tourist resorts and beaches
Intelligent and immersive... Hislop's incisive narrative weaves a vast array of fact through a poignant, compelling family saga
Impressively imagined . . . make[s] you want to jump on a plane to Athens
Fascinating and moving... Hislop writes unforgettably about Cyprus and its people
Adroitly plotted and deftly characterised, Hislop's gripping novel tells the stories of ordinary Greek and Turkish families trying to preserve their humanity in a maelstrom of deception, betrayal and ethnic hatred
Victoria Hislop writes so vividly about the Med, you can almost feel the scorching heat. An absorbing tale about family, friendship, loyalty and betrayal, set during a violent period in the history of Cyprus
Vibrant... Hislop brings history to life in this compelling tale
Hislop hasn't of course been into Famagusta - no one may, even now - but has stood near the barbed wire and imagined what life was like there, then and now, with her usual gift for presenting bits of history most of us are unfamiliar with from a fictional point of view
Hislop carefully evokes the lives of Cretans between the wars and during German occupation, but most commendable is her compassionate portrayal of the outcasts
A beautiful tale of enduring love and unthinking prejudice
A vivid, moving and absorbing tale
