"A Foreign Woman's Guide to Greek Gods"

Any foreign female visiting Greece will have the opportunity to meet many Greek men. There can be few spots in the world where a woman travelling alone, with female friends, male friend or friends, husband, grandmother, or childhood nanny will be as sought after. Glorious young narcissuses strut past and pay touchingly obscene compliments; businessmen call out from passing cars; fishermen, waiters, hotel staff and an occasional village priest prepare their overtures.
Whether your liaison with a Greek is a one-night disaster, a throbbing three-week unity which romance novels only come close to depicting, the greatest love of your life, or that rarity, a working marriage of two cultures, this book will help, amuse, and calm you.
Greek men are handsome, arrogant, cunning, unfaithful, musical, melancholy and above all, welcoming. Welcome!
