Set on the picturesque Greek island of Andros, Little England is the name of a pre war shipping enterprise. The opening scene of crashing surf is a forbearance of the story‘s turbulent and tragic events. 20 year-old Orsa is passionately in love with second mate Spyros, which she dares not reveal to anyone, least of all her domineering mother, Mina, herself the wife of a captain who prefers the seas over Andros. Without considering the girls desire to love, Mina conspires to wed them to the wealthiest suitors; Orsa to ship owner and captain Nikos Vatokouzis and Moscha to the very man Mina rejected as Orsa’s future husband, Spyros Maltabes, who returns a captain after years in the lower rankings of a ship‘s hierarchy. A final tragedy seals the fate of the sisters as the story progresses into the throes of World War II. (less)
