God's Snake by IRINI SPANIDOU abridged in ten parts by JANE MAYS
Read by Paola Dionisotti
A young girl, brave, clever, affectionate, grows up in a military family in post-war
Greece. The animals teach her about love and death; the people reveal what lies between - ugliness and beauty, cruelty and passion. Painfully her wide-eyed innocence hardens into worldly wisdom.
This remarkable first novel has been highly acclaimed for its powerful imagery, its wit, humour and compassion. 1: The Snake Skin
