Paradise in Peril claims to expose dire changes in the Iarian way of life. The author, John Chrysochoosos, was born on Ikaria. The description of his early life is certainly worth a read. But he left the island in early manhood to complete his education in the New World, making his life there and visiting the island regularly since. Unfortunately, along the way he metamorphosed from Ikarian to American. He looks now at the island with American eyes. It is an interesting book, but he overstates his case. It should not to be taken too seriously.
The book is available in paperback and Kindle editions on Amazon, where there is a fuller review. |
