Ellie receives postcards from Greece every week, although they are addressed to someone she does not know. Intrigued by the photographs and the mysterious sender, she decides to travel to Greece. There she discovers a notebook telling the story of a man’s journey through the country, filled with encounters, memories, love and loss. A lyrical portrait of Greece, its landscapes, people, history and culture.

Ellie otrzymuje co tydzień pocztówki z Grecji, adresowane do nieznanej jej osoby i podpisane jedynie inicjałem „A”. Zafascynowana fotografiami i tajemniczym nadawcą postanawia wyruszyć do Aten. Tuż przed wyjazdem dostaje zeszyt zawierający historię podróży pewnego mężczyzny po Grecji. Jego opowieść prowadzi przez greckie krajobrazy, kulturę i historię, a także przez doświadczenia miłości, straty i poszukiwania nowego sensu życia. Książka łączy fikcję literacką z fotografiami Grecji.

In the summer of 1972, Famagusta in Cyprus is the most desirable resort in the Mediterranean, a city bathed in the glow of good fortune. An ambitious couple are about to open the island's most spectacular hotel, where Greek and Turkish Cypriots work in harmony. Two neighbouring families, the Georgious and the Özkans, are among many who moved to Famagusta to escape the years of unrest and ethnic violence elsewhere on the island. But beneath the city's façade of glamour and success, tension is building. When a Greek coup plunges the island into chaos, Cyprus faces a disastrous conflict. Turkey invades to protect the Turkish Cypriot minority, and Famagusta is shelled. Forty thousand people seize their most precious possessions and flee from the advancing soldiers. In the deserted city, just two families remain. This is their story.

Książka w języku angielskim Powieść obyczajowa

A beautiful and epic novel that spans nearly a hundred years, The Thread is a magnificent story of a friendship and a love that endures through the catastrophes and upheavals of the twentieth century--both natural and man-made--in the turbulent city of Thessaloniki, Greece. Victoria Hislop, internationally bestselling author of The Island and The Return, has written a wonderfully evocative and enthralling saga enriched by deep emotion and sweeping historical events, from fire to civil war to Nazi brutality and economic collapse. The Thread is historical fiction at its finest, colorful and captivating with truly unforgettable characters--a novel that brilliant captures the energy and life of this singular Greek city.
