Norman Douglas, one of the 20th century`s great travellers in Italy, was for most of his life inextricably, passionately, connected to the Bay of Naples. This breathtaking sweep of sea & coastline
- dominated by Vesuvius & with Pozzuoli & Sorrento standing sentinel
- was Douglas` first experience of Italy. It was here, on the island of Capri, that he died, some 55 years after first buying a villa in Naples. ” Siren Land”, Douglas` first travel book, is a homage to a part of the world that captivated him more than any other. Weaving the myths of the Sirens into the landscape & history of the region, Douglas writes with knowledge & an irrepressible exuberance of the past & the present, of legends & archaeology, folklore & daily life, patron saints, local ghosts, wine & the wind. As the summer draws to a close, Douglas` prose becomes suffused with a melancholy tinged with excitement at what still remains to be discovered: `relics of Roman rule, of old Hellas, or medieval romance... These are the delights of Siren Land`. ` What makes ” Siren Land” exceptional is the quality of the telling. Weaving scholarship, impressions, fact & fantasy into an intricate fabric as enchantingly entertaining & full of human interest as the best of fairy tales or ancient myths. One of the most memorable books of its genre`
- Mark Holloway, in his introduction to ” Siren Land”.
