About This Book

Through the unwavering gaze of a young boy named Alex, 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 ambitions.

A Crowded Heart follow's young Alex as he grows up in the shadow of his father, who is preparing to be the future Prime Minister of Greece. This novel is set against a sensuously wrought Greek landscape as Alex and his family move through the dangerous world of Byzantine politics and are swept up in the avalanche of revolution, military dictatorship, and, ultimately, exile.
