Just Done Productions would like to announce the release of The Silver Chrysalis by Sam Sterban
During a journey that takes them from the clamour of Athens to the rural tranquillity of Cephalonia, their familiar and comfortable worlds are changed irrevocably.
The story contains essential and familiar elements of classical works - comedy and tragedy, drama and pathos. The author’s style is romantically sensual, whether he is describing Greek food and drink, music and dance, the evocative and unchanging land and seascapes or the physical relationship that develops between the hero and heroine. Serious moments are suddenly enlightened by quiet shafts of humour and there are hilarious interludes during which the dialogue verges on the outrageous while subtly casting a spotlight on sexual exploitation and hypocrisy.
The reader will be captivated by the author’s powerful descriptive writing and lured into a sun drenched idyll that gives no warning of impending tragedy that is, initially, only vaguely sensed like the distant rumble of thunder on a hot, still afternoon..
The author was educated at Stellenbosch and Oxford universities and spent 32 years in the South African foreign service. He has lived, worked and travelled in Africa, Europe, the Americas and Asia and has accompanied an expedition to Antarctica and the sub antarctic islands. He has written numerous travel articles. The "Silver Chrysalis" is his first work of fiction.
