Mermaid Singing

"Mermaid Singing" recounts Charmian Clift and George Johnston's transformative first year on the Greek island of Kalymnos, capturing their experiences of culture shock and the joys of island life before tourism changed its character. This travel writing classic offers an evocative glimpse into traditional Greek customs and the serene rhythms of island living, with a recent new introduction by Polly Samson.
