Greek islanders on Cephalonia suffer the occupying Italian army. Correlli and Pelagia the Doctor's daughter fall in love, but are doomed never to marry. In fact Pelagia is engaged to a local fisherman Mandras who goes to fight with the Greek resistance and is transformed into an insensitive monster. Re-read this, finishing 23 October 2002 - really fab again!

Great stuff! Funny and tragic.

Story of the villagers in a small Turkish town, and what happens to them during the various wars they have to endure.

Jolly good, but not as good as Cpt Correlli.
