The Magic in the Receiver

THE MAGIC IN THE RECEIVER is a captivating debut novel set on the Greek island of Kefalonia. Told in the present, and during the week of the Great Ionian Earthquake, three tales are woven into one unforgettable story.

1953 Kefalonia Earthquake

In 1953, a 7.6 earthquake devastated the Greek Island of Kefalonia. A few buildings in the north survived but the capital, Argostoli, was flattened. With the economy in ruin, the majority of the population were forcibly evacuated, ending up scattered throughout the world. One hundred and twenty-five thousand people lived on Kefalonia before the disaster, less than twenty-five thousand live there today.

Having been away from Kefalonia for about 5 months, THE MAGIC IN THE RECEIVER made me so, so painfully homesick. Not only is the book packed with powerful characters and captivating and intermingling story lines, but it bursts at the seams with the colors, scents and aromas of Kefalonia.
