Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book centers on the events that unfold as Pray C. Quigley takes his family to the remote Monastery of Meteora in 1925. Quigley is an eccentric inventor, who believes that his daughter Goldina Cassandra is in danger from the young and penniless adventurer Jimmie Chard. As such, he's bringing the whole family to Greece in order to keep them separated. However, the author shows how the whims of the wealthy and powerful patriarch of the Quigley family stir up a series of events where nobody ends up doing what they were intended to do. Unexpected visitors turn up, arguments ensue, and a vivid picture of an American family trying to adapt to life in the shadow of an ancient civilization is drawn. The author explores the very human aspects of love, loss, and relationships with humor and insight. This book will appeal to anyone interested in early twentieth-century literature, family dynamics, and tales of love and resilience.
