It is a wonderfully descriptive and very funny account of the two years the author and his wife spent in the tiny village of Meligalas in southern Greece. The book combines journal entries, poetry, and letters home to magical effect; the book is thoroughly readable and highly likable. Mr. Levy's remarkably astute observations of life in the tiny village are consistently warmhearted and generous, ranging from sad to poignant to downright hilarious.
