About This Item
London: Vintage. Very Good+. 2003. Reprint; Third Printing. Paperback. 129 X 17 X 198 millimeters . Corner crease to front cover, minor shelf wear with slight cover peel. ; Third printing of Vintage paperback edition, 2003. Nice tight copy, no names or marks inside, appears unread. Cover design uncredited with photo courtesy of AKG London / John Hios. ; 288 pages; Panos Karnezis' world is a nameless Greek village. His characters are the people who live there - the priest, the barber, the whore, the doctor, the seamstress, the mayor - and the occasional animal: a centaur, a parrot that recites Homer, a horse called History. Their lives intersect, as lives do in a small place, and they know each other's secrets - the hidden crimes, the mysteries, the little infamies that men commit. Karnezis observes his villagers with a forgiving eye, and creates a world where magic invariably loses out to harsh reality, a world at once universal, funny and utterly compelling. .
