Mermaid Singing
In 1951 the Australian writers Charmian Clift and George Johnston left grey, post-war London for Greece. Peel Me a Lotus, the companion volume to Mermaid Singing, relates their move to Hydra where they bought a house and grappled with the chaos of domestic life whilst becoming the center of an informal bohemian community of artists and writers. Settling first on the tiny island of Kalymnos, then Hydra, their plan was to live simply and focus on their writing The result is Charmian Clift's best known and most loved books, Mermaid Singing and Peel Me a Lotus.
Clift paints an evocative picture of the characters and sun-drenched rhythms of traditional life, long before backpackers and mass tourism That group included Leonard Cohen, who became their lodger, and his girlfriend Marianne Ihlen.
