The characters are wonderfully drawn and true to life (at least the ones I knew) and the descriptions of the island and the way of life are superb. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others.

In Theatre for Dreamers, Polly Samson introduces the main character as Erica, a young girl grieving for her mother who escapes to Greece with her brother and boyfriend after a book arrives from an old friend, however, we actually see and hear very little from her. Cohen is painted in a tentative manner while Marianne is revered. The world is dancing on the edge of revolution, and nowhere more so than on the Greek island of Hydra, where a circle of poets, painters and musicians live tangled lives, ruled by the writers Charmian Clift and George Johnston, troubled king and queen of bohemia. It features a young poet called Leonard Cohen and a muse called MarianneSamson imagines it all with sultry precision in this utterly transporting, bittersweet portrait of youthful and sexual idealismPolly Samson is the author of two short story collections and two previous novels.

Only read it as it was recommended by an unlikely source ( bought some bedding from Piglet & it was there book of the month) but what a find.
We work hard to protect your security and privacy. An enchantingly evocative visit to a world that has drifted away where poets seek eternity and writers tangle with the present in the innocence of guilt. My holiday to Greece was cancelled this year, for obvious reasons, but I feel like I've been away and finishing this book is like a sad home-coming. You can almost feel the stifling heat rising from the rocks at Spilia and smell the odors of Donkey-Shit-Lane.A wonderful picture of the 60s and Greek islands at the time
