About this listen

This is the account of a unique journey – a 600-mile trek on foot around Cyprus in the last year of the island's peace. Colin Thubron intertwines myth, history and personal anecdote in a quest from which the characters and places, architecture and landscape all spring vividly to the listener's ear.

Loved this book, Cyprus got the paperback of this. Reminds me of being there in the sun. Fond memories.

Good book

Essential reading for anyone who has an interest in Cyprus history. Thubron is s bit 'old school' in his travels and characters come across like eccentric extras in a film. He has provides some fascinating pieces on the history of the various sites he visits including research on past excavations and surveys.

History of days before partition.

I found the sale a little dry. There is no doubt the book was thoroughly researched though. Worthwhile

A little dry for my taste, but well written

Old school book, well written, very British sense of humour, not for a 21st century minded individual perhaps...

This book touches on greatness at times!

A marvellous way to discover Cyprus and its history. I kept a map, nearby, as I listened.

Wonderful Read
