...What I love most in the world is Greece, but the Greek sea, the Greek hills, the Greek sun, the reflection of the sun on the Greek hills are not for me to see. Greek, but I am not permitted to return to Greece. That is why I am writing this book. The story is about me and people I know...
...I shall not write with modesty or reserve because I am neither modest nor reserved.
