The Finding of the Cave on Poros Island: Greek English Parallel Text
$4.99
This is a fictional story written by a little-known Greek-American author called Julia D. Dragoumis, first published in 1917.
The story centers on an eleven-year-old boy called Pavlo Zamanas, proud descendant of great-grandpa Zamanas who fought bravely in the Greek War of Independence in 1821.
Pavlo, who lives in Athens and has no siblings, suddenly finds himself staying with the adventurous Four one summer—siblings Chrysa, Iason, Nikia and Andromache—on an extended visit to Poros island with his uncle.
They spend their days playing, swimming and pretending to be heroes but what will they do when they meet a madman on the hills on their quest to find a secret cave on the other side of the island?
Will they be as brave as the Greek revolutionary heroes they so admire?
This fascinating story transports you back in time to early 20th century Greece, giving you a real sense of what life was like then for children.
