The story of a man in love with a place, a woman, and a dream.Tom Stone went to Greece one summer to write a novel and stayed twentytwo years. On Patmos, he fell in love with Danielle, a beautiful French painter. His novel completed and sold, he decided to stay a little longer.Seven idyllic years later, they left Patmos for Crete. When a Patmian friend Theolgos called and offered him a summer partnership in his beach tavrna, The Beautiful Helen, Stone jumped at the chance much to the dismay of his wife, who cautioned him not to forget the old adage about Greeks bearing gifts.Her warning was wellfounded: when back on Patmos, Stone quickly discovered that he was no longer a friend or patron but a competitor. He learned hard lessons about the Greeks' skill at bargaining and business while reluctantly coming to the realization that Theolgos's offer of a partnership was indeed a Trojan horse.Featuring Stone's recipes, including his own Chicken Retsina and the ultimate moussaka, The Summer of My Greek Tavrna is as much a love story as it is the grand, humorous, and sometimes bittersweet adventures of an American pursuing his dreams in a foreign land, a modernday innocent abroad.
