Items related to An Affair Of The Heart
An unforgettable evocation of a country and its people, "An Affair of the Heart" was hailed as a classic when it was first published more than forty years ago, and is still regarded as one of the most outstanding books on Greece ever written. Dilys Powell spent many years in Greece before World War II, returning there in 1945 after the tragic early death of her husband. In this personal odyssey, she not only gives a deeply moving account of her journeys, but also draws us in to share her joy in a timeless land and its gallant, indestructible people.
