THE THREAD

Image result for the thread hislopThe Thread by Victoria Hislop - I just finished this book featuring Greece's second largest city, Thessaloniki, as the background to an amazing story covering most of the 20th century. Katerina is the main character, who we meet in Smyrna as a small girl, when circumstances change the trajectory of her life forever. She grew up in a country continuously rocked by changes and turmoil, but she had a special talent that allowed her to survive and always persevere. It's a beautiful story.
