The Byzantine Touch

It may not be very often, but waking from a deep and pleasant sleep with a specific sentence can hardly be termed banal. Yet this is exactly what happened; the very first sentence of this story came from a dream – a hint not to be ignored. So, sitting up in bed, a story was written, set in 1968 in places familiar to the writer. The reader who has embarked on this well-known 3-day bus tour will recognise the sites. Although the itinerary is correct, the events that happen in this story are pure fiction. Consequently, the traveller may proceed to Greece

without fear or trepidation. Bon Voyage!
