Artemis Cooper in Athens, on Patrick Leigh Fermor in Greece

I read the recent interview with Artemis Cooper in Kathimerini (Sunday Arts Section, 27 May), but now there's information in English on her talk in Athens.

Watch the videocast.

Artemis Cooper's biography of Patrick Leigh Fermor is eagerly awaited.

She will be in Lismore, Ireland, tomorrow, at Immrama, The Lismore Festival of Travel Writing:
Friday June 8th
Venue: Courthouse Theatre Tickets: €15.00
8pm Friday evening will see a panel discussion on:
'The Legacy and Influence of Patrick Leigh Fermor on Travel Writing'
The panel will consist of:
Jan Morris
Artemis Cooper, writing Patrick Leigh Fermor's biography
Colin Thubron
Tony Wheeler (founder of Lonely Planet Guide)
The panel will be chaired by Paul Clements.

      Thanks for this but also for your regular postings on news about Greece and Europe. I read you as someone else might once have opened their copy of the Times - when it was a newspaper.

        That's a compliment indeed. Thanks. I happen to be here at an interesting but difficult time. I should be spending more time on other pressing projects!
