The world which Patrick Leigh Fermor regales us with in his books, so often mistakenly titled travelogues, is a fiction. It only ever existed in his mind and in his writing. His home was an integral part of this same imaginary universe.
The house at Kardamili was merged with Paddyâs own inner version of Greece. Both were deeply intimate and personal creations; poetic, palpitating, filled with sparks and energy.
When a reader submerges herself in that authorâs books, she feels like a privileged inhabitant of a world filled with nobility, one that is also gently humorous, elegant and beautiful. To live in his home implied a like experience. It was to inhabit an Elysian dream whose tempo extended into another dimension: a parenthesis of poetry from which any hint of anything sordid or squalid was excluded.
