Book Description
Excerpt from Athenian Letters, Vol. 1 of 2: Or the Epistolary Correspondence of an Agent of the King of Persia, Residing at Athens During the Peloponnesian War At the same time we may entertain a more adequate notion of the customs of the Greeks and-persians from these Letters of our Agent, in which the living manners are expressed, than we can possibly gather from the most formal and elaborate treatises of grave antiqua ries.' Not to mention several curious particulars of Court subtilty and intrigue interwoven in the course of them, which may seem perhaps beneath the notice of an historian, but which yet have a wonderful effect in unravelling the secret springs and true causes of action.

Book Description
Excerpt from Leyli: A Romance of the AEgean Sea Leyli Canto I Clime of departed glories! lo, afar I hail the welcome of embowered isles! Pale mountain'd, o'er the ocean like a star, Each from its purple mantle dimly smiles; And for a time my wearied glance beguiles; Now on the cliff the gleaming tomb behold, Far on the tide its nameless shadow piles, Its mingling tints, its long descending fold, Till shivered into foam when the blue wave hath rolled. And such thou art, a shadow of thyself, A shiver'd mem'ry of thy former days: Lo! crowns yon hill, and many a mountain shelf, The ruined temple's desolated maze - Alas, have creeds a temporary blaze? Like those who made them, eddying to their doom Beyond the eloquence of pride or praise, Or scorn? - behold, within the dusty gloom Remains but scatter'd dust, the wreckage of the tomb!

Book Description
Excerpt from Tales of Aegean Intrique If these stories should serve as an incitement to every pater-familias actual or potential to address to his children an Apologia pro Vita Sud 1914-1918, otherwise called An Account of what Daddy did in the Great War they would set, I confess, a pernicious example: the world itself could not contain the books that should be written, or, what is worse, the public would not stomach them. And so, if I venture upon a narrative of some of my doings, my justification is that my experiences have been largely peculiar to myself and not a replica of those which tens of thousands of others can recount, and my work that of a comparatively free agent rather than of one unit in a controlled and disciplined mass. For, let me avow it at once, my part in the war cannot be deemed, in the common acceptance, warlike: I have not been under fire; I have not encountered submarine or mine; I have not so much as seen an enemy in uniform and at large.

Book Description
'A delicious evocation of place and memory from one of my favourite cooks.' Allan Jenkins, Editor of Observer Food Monthly 'This book is so much more than a cookbook, it's a love song to a very special place and we are lucky to have the brilliant Marianna as our guide.' Itamar Srulovich, co-founder of Honey & Co. 'I want to make everything in this beautiful book. An absolute treasure.' Rosie Birkett, author of The Joyful Home Cook With photography from Elena Heatherwick, the Fortnum & Mason Food and Drink Photographer of the Year 2020 Marianna Leivaditaki is a natural storyteller. She grew up in Chania, on the Greek island of Crete, and spent her childhood helping out in the family-run taverna. After school, she carried around her blue notebook, writing down all the recipes she would like to cook, helped by the Greek grannies' kitchen wisdom. Marianna's love for the food of her heritage flows off every page, but she also has a contemporary take on it. As head chef of Morito in Hackney, she has championed high-quality ingredients, presenting them in simple, stunning sharing plates, and has been critically acclaimed for doing so. These inspirational recipes derive from the SEA, the LAND and the MOUNTAINS. We all know the health benefits of a Mediterranean diet, rich in olive oil, fresh vegetables and fruit, nuts, fish and whole grains, as well as the importance of how you eat and appreciate your food. Marianna offers achievable, yet delicious dishes celebrating seasonal, fresh food that you can take time to enjoy with friends and family.
