The Greek Tapestry: Julie & Friends

Autor Anthea Syrokou
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 mai 2018
During their childhood in Sydney, Maria and her older sister, Nicki, were friends with Dimity, the girl who lived across the street. They grew up together, spending many joyous afternoons in each other's company. They loved creating art, and Dimity and Nicki, with a little help from Maria, came first in an art project at school with a tapestry they made by hand, which depicted island life in Greece. They always believed nothing would separate them - but would sadly find that nothing was a tall order. When Nicki and Maria's parents uproot them to move to Greece, leaving Dimity behind, they discover that even the strongest friendships can disintegrate. Now, almost twenty years later, each of them has their own life. Dimity lives in a designer house with her sexy husband, an industrial designer named Malcolm, and their two daughters. She loves Malcolm, but struggles to get along with his mother, and is tired of playing the accommodating wife. In need of change and inspiration, she sets off to Greece to see where an unplanned journey may take her. Maria has both the career and the family, but still feels the need to prove herself to her mother. After her mother hides invitations to her cousin's wedding in Greece from her, Maria is spurred into action. She is sick of her mother's interference and heads to Greece in search of answers. Nicki also has a successful career, but she and her husband, Marco, are unable to have what they really want - a child. This fills Nicki with constant sadness, and puts a lot of pressure on her relationship with Marco. Needing a change in life, she follows her sister to Greece, and stays in a peaceful, historic village outside the small city of Ioannina. Will Greece fill Nicki's heart with light and hope again? As Maria, Nicki, and Dimity each try to untangle their complex lives, will they find their way home and weave their own beautiful reality? The Greek Tapestry (Julie & Friends, Book 2) can be read as part of a series, following on from the delightful Eventually Julie (Julie & Friends, Book 1). In this latest book, it's Maria's turn to take centre stage Joining her are many exciting new characters, as well as some familiar and popular faces from Book 1. Fasten your seatbelts and get ready to join the fun in magical Greece!

Notă biografică

Anthea Syrokou is an author who grew up and resides in Sydney, Australia. Anthea's love for writing was planted at a young age when she studied Greek mythology. Her love for literature continued well into her teenage years when she enjoyed reading novels by many of the great English writers. As a young adult, she immersed herself in reading women's contemporary fiction and writing about topics, that many could relate to, in a witty, light-hearted way, which became a passion - one that she takes very seriously. Anthea has a BA degree, majoring in psychology and industrial relations, and a diploma in counselling. She also studied Greek literature at university and has worked in direct marketing, and insurance and investments. When she isn't writing or reading, Anthea enjoys travelling, yoga, spending time with her family, and escaping to the vineyards. A quiet house with some jazz playing in the background, surrounded by a few lit scented candles is her idea of relaxation. Even though Anthea dreams about hosting the "perfect" dinner party, she is more likely to be found at a cosy, candlelit restaurant. She lives with her husband and their two sons, and often jokes she may be the only writer who doesn't own a cat. Find out more at Anthea's website https://antheasyrokou.com
