Captain Corelli's Mandolin (Windsor Selections S.) - Hardcover

It is 1941 and Captain Antonio Corelli, a young Italian officer, is posted to the Greek island of Cephallonia as part of the occupying forces. At first he is ostracised by the locals, but as a conscientious but far from fanatical soldier, whose main aim is to have a peaceful war, he proves to be civilised, humorous - and a consummate musician.
