Discard from small NH library.. 1 192 p. 23 cm. Autobiography about a personal and cultural marital collision. A young educated Englishwoman marries a Greek and finds she must also marry Greece. Challenges are a society she finds rigid, with an unchallenged web of custom and superstition; a fatalistic philosophy; arranged marriages and the position of women. Sheelagh Kanelli's book revolves around the gradual resolution to these observations through her own understanding of the meanings of behaviors in Greek life, loosening her early judgments. Thus, a sense of place is described lyrically, spiced with enlightened perception.
