Three True Stories

Average Rating

Price: £




Full of energy, colour and inerest, can these entertaining stories be really true?

These three stories might be subtitled traveller’s tales with a twist. Each story involves a curious encounter.  The first story, THE GARDEN, takes place on a Greek island amid baking rocks and under a dizzy-making boiling sun.  The second story, HORSE SENSE, takes place on the London Undergound as well as on the mountains of Pelion in Greece.  The third story, HOLIDAY SNAP, takes place in Transylvania and involves children. Very scary, this one.
Love and desire are entwined with ancient myth and religion. All true, though you’d have to be very lucky if any of these stories were to happen to you. Keep looking, you never know what is around the next corner.
