En savoir plus sur le livre
In his hugely popular <i>Prospero's Cell</i>, Lawrence Durrell brought Corfu to life, attracting tens of thousands of visitors to the island. With <i>Reflections on a Marine Venus</i>, he turns to Rhodes: ranging over its past and present, touching with wit and insights on the history and myth which the landscape embodies, and presenting some real and some imagined. With the same wit, tenderness and poetic insight that characterized <i>Prospero's Cell</i>, <i>Reflections on a Marine Venus</i> is an excellent introduction the Eastern Mediterranean. 'How pleasant . . . to meet Mr Durrell, gloating over his enjoyment of a Greek island! . . . He excites a longing to leave for Rhodes at once.' Raymond Mortimer
