Corelli's Mandolin
|
|
 |
Title Description Louis de Bernieres' stunning novel chronicles the lives of the people of Cephallonia as they contend with the Axis invasion and occupation, and the unexpected acts of God and man that shape their lives during the five decades that follow. It chronicles the days and nights of the island's inhabitants - the widowed doctor, his brainy daughter and her innocent (or deadly) fisherman fiance, the wine-besotted priest, the gentle strongman giant, the ancient political debaters down at the tavern, and the uninvited newcomers: in particular, the reluctant head of the Italian garrison - the charming, mandolin-playing Captain Corelli - and his aide-de-camp, who harbors a well of secrets and shame. "...reading it is like discovering anew the enchanting power of fiction." (San Francisco Chronicle) Recommendations Customers who ordered this book also ordered: 1.
