The Book

This is a story about the real-life travels of a first-generation American family back to their cultural roots in Greece during the 1960’s. It is laugh-aloud funny, colorful, smartly written, and has a deep twist of fate behind the true story that is very relevant in today’s ancestry-fascinated community. Chicken In Greece evokes the characters of “Mad Men” and “Mamma Mia,” as the story begins in the heart of the advertising culture of New York City and unfolds in the colorful celebrations of Greek culture.

The protagonist, Bill, was the top salesman for Family Circle Magazine, the best-selling woman’s magazine in the country during the late ‘50’s and early ‘60’s. Bill was restless, he was bored selling “Americana” and wanted to get back to basics. He came to dislike and detest the Madison Avenue, 3-martini lunch lifestyle that he had become all too accustom too. It was time for a radical change. This is the story of that change and the lifelong effect that it had on the family, including the birth of their 4th-child in Greece during that time.
