2006Perhaps the most acclaimed photographer of cats in the world, Hans Silvester returns to his beloved Greek isles...for this glorious new collection of deliciously sun-drenched photographs. Cats in Love reveals the full wealth and intensity of feline affection -- from the amorous prowl of a tomcat to the motherly tenderness of a tabby; from the playful nips of tussling kittens to friends caught curled up in a nap; from a pair of young acquaintances shyly rubbing noses to a couple of old friends grooming each other. Set against the idyllic white-washed villages of the Mediterranean, this is love in all its sweet diversity. Sure to delight fans of Silvester's previous work, Cats in Love will certainly charm softies of every stripe. 152p. of wonderful colour photographs. A delightful gift book for fans of felines! Still in original shrink wrap Book

1996Patricia Storace, with immense tact and skill, reveals how the dreams of modern Greece are the woven product of classical culture, of Byzantine and Orthodox Christianity, Ottoman occupation and of modern nationalism. The dizzying paradoxes that result when an outsider tries to fathom this very old country - which is at the same time a relatively young and spiky Balkan nation - give this book its taut and careful lyrical quality. The author leads her readers by a form of writing which allows critical affection and unpredictable understanding.398p. Book
