Book Description

?He leaned over and kissed her on the lips, then with a half open hand he caressed her face with his knuckles, feeling a vague desire for something he probably already had, or perhaps didn't need, or that just plain didn't exist. He did love her. He knew that. And despite the emotional confinement required to relate with her, there were liberating elements as well.? Marcus Finn?s girlfriend, Julia, refuses to be faithful, and despite the profound love and passion they share, Marcus cannot help feeling that something is missing. Struggling with conflicting emotions, Marcus works at convincing himself that he has all that he needs, until gorgeous reporter Marty Jameson enters his life. As their relationship blossoms into romance, they embark on a treasure hunt among the ruins of a Greek city. Surrounded by friends, magic, and intrigue, Marcus and Marty just might discover something more than the golden statue they seek.

5 out of 5 stars Great buy!.......2001-10-10

I'm not quite sure what to say about this book. It's very, very large and covers an unusual expanse of effectively co-mingled themes. It is an EFFECTIVE novel. It swept over me and in the end, left me with the uncanny awareness of the possibility of mortal exaltation. I think it was the subtle sense of mystery and the bigness of it all within the smallness of it all that kept coming through. The author did a magnificent job of exploring and refining portions of vast nowhere-near-fully-charted territories of human understanding like reincarnation, sexuality, the nature of freedom, and impermanence. I liked the characters for the most part. A couple probably could have been fleshed out a little better...but the main character's dilemma, the role of fidelity in our modern society, was poignantly and effectively handled. Recommend it!

5 out of 5 stars Playful, but thought-provoking.......2001-04-30

Fun, entertaining book with enjoyable characters. My wife has been fantasizing about going to Greece for some time. We recently talked about making a trip there for our 20th anniversary. So the title of the book caught my eye. Now having read `Mykonos', I definitely want to go there. The island is portrayed as an idyllic paradise, bathed in golden sunshine. A throwback in time. One can read the book for the plot: a tantalizing treasure hunt amidst ancient ruins or one can read it for the challenges it presents the reader - introspective questions about one's own self-doubts and life-choices. Either way it's a very enjoyable ride.
