A very important new publication from Colenso Books

"The first English translation of the complete short stories of Corfiot writer Konstantinos Theotokis. These often brutal, occasionally humorous stories centre on the consequences for women of the honour code in traditional village society in Corfu in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries".

One of my favourite Greek books (in Greek);  I can't wait to read the translations by J. M. Q. Davies.

Also available from Colenso Books: The Life and Death of Hangman Thomas, Konstantinos Theotokis

The Cat of Portovecchio, Corfu Tales, Maria Strani-Potts (go to the first of the New copies on offer, from Colenso Books)
