Extracts from two classic books, 'Mermaid Singing' and 'Peel Me A Lotus' take the listener on an evocative tour of the Greek Islands. Includes an interview with Charmian Clift, recorded before her death in 1969.
In 1954 Charmian Clift and her husband, writer George Johnston, abandoned their London home and set off with two typewriters and two small children for a new life in Greece. This audio features extracts from two Clift books, which detail their discovery of a new way of life, the rhythm of the seasons and the island's beauty, myths and traditions.
