Captain Corelli's Mandolin

Viac o knihe

It Is 1941 And Captain Antonio Corelli, A Young Italian Officer, Is Posted To The Greek Island Of Cephallonia As Part Of The Occupying Forces. At First He Is Ostracised By The Locals, But As A Conscien-Tious But Far From Fanatical Soldier, Whose Main Aim Is To Have A Peaceful War, He Proves In Time To Be Civilised, Humorous - And A Consumate Musician. When The Local Doctor'S Daughter'S Letters To Her Fiance Go Unanswered, The Working Of The Eternal Triangle Seems Inevitable. But Can This Fragile Love Survive As A War Of Bestial Savagery Gets Closer And The Lines Are Drawn Between Invader And Defender?
