Borderlines

Keeley has had a life-long relationship with Greece, beginning with his childhood, when his father served in the diplomatic corp. This is his memoir of Greece, its life, culture, writers and people. It traces his childhood through the war years, when, unable to return due to the war, he became almost an exile in his home country. As an adult he returns a professor, the translator and friend of the major Greek poets, and marries a Greek woman. "Borderlines" documents a writer's search for meaning in a life influenced by often conflicting cultural values.
