Erica is eighteen and ready for freedom.

It's the summer of 1960 when she lands on the sun-baked Greek island of Hydra where she is swept up in a circle of bohemian poets, painters, musicians, writers and artists, living tangled lives. Life on their island paradise is heady, dream-like, a string of seemingly endless summer days. But nothing can last forever.

"Samson is an intensely sensual writer, conjuring up blue skies, the tang of wild herbs, the vivid splash of bougainvillea...As good as a Greek holiday, and may be the closest we get this year"
Financial Times

"As dreamily nostalgic as Cohen's song Famous Blue Raincoat"
Alex Preston, Observer, New Year Highlights

"Sleazy, evocative, beautiful and entertaining"
Stuart Turton, Guardian Summer Reading Picks

"A thoroughly enjoyable drama of hedonism, enchantment and emotional beastliness"
Times Literary Supplement

"A coming of age story set among a group of artists and poets, including Leonard Cohen, on the Greek island of Hydra in 1960. She is so good at mentally indelible imagery"
Jojo Moyes, Guardian
