Synopsis: |
Olivia has settled on the tiny Greek Island of Halemni, is married to a Greek man and is mother of two small sons. As the turquoise of summer dissolves into the cool of autumn, so the rhythm of Island life goes on unchanged - until an earthquake sends a tidal wave to envelop the Island. In the aftermath a stranger appears. Kitty, an Englishwoman, is alone and without possessions. She accepts Olivia's offer of refuge in the potter's house, but she guards her past as preciously as Olivia protects her young family. |
