Rethymnon - a British couple's true story of love and loss on Crete Marilyn Drawwater

'Rethymnon - A British couple's true story of love and loss on Crete' is a book to make you laugh and cry. It is a true story about love, loss and the delights and downsides and of moving to a different country. Readers are taken on an exhilarating journey from South West London to Southern Greece. The book is an account of a decision to migrate and all the other stages of the transition. There was fun and laughter despite the difficulties encountered with Greek bureaucracy. It includes a frank account of the writer's grief over the sudden loss of her beloved husband, how she coped with living in a foreign country on her own and what led to her decision to remain.
