Lead Review

• Book: The Greek for Love
• Location: Corfu
• Author: James Chatto

‘The Greek for Love is a voluptuous, sensual dive into Corfu – food, drink, the appeal of exile, and the story of a ripening love affair. There is a strand of melancholy within this memoir, as there must be in writing that rings so resoundingly true. But this book leaves one, in the end, grinning like an idiot and envious of the descriptive skills of its author. A lovely book, and the finest sort of travel writing.’

(Kevin Patterson, author of COUNTRY OF COLD )
