      About This Book

      Through the gaze of a young boy, Nicholas Papandreou narrates the story of a family uprooted from their home in the United States to live in Greece in pursuit of a father's political ambition.

      In a delicately crafted series of vignettes that create the portrait of an unforgettable family, A Crowded Heart follows Alex as he grows under the shadow of his father, the future Prime Minister. This breathtaking first novel is set against a lusciously wrought Greek landscape, as Alex and his family move through the world of Byzantine politics and are swept up in the avalanche of revolution, military dictatorship, and exile.
