Description
The moment of reckoning has come for Captain Mitsos Avgustis. After 12 years at sea, it's time to go home to the island on which he was born: home to his wife Flora, his two daughters, his son, a granddaughter and Litsa, his lover from years ago. It will take all his courage and strength to face the squalls and storms on land after a lifetime at sea. Swell is a sweeping saga about love and hope set in modern-day Greece and is Karystiani's most moving and gripping novel yet.
