Despite personal tragedy, occupation and civil war, Powell s affair of the heart continued. She returned time and again through the 40s and 50s, and with each visit there was a reconciliation with her idyllic memories, despite the changing reality of Greece. Both with Hunfry and without, she explored remote mountains in the company of shepherds, isolated stretches of coast and island with local fishermen and olive-dotted hillsides with their subsistence farmers.
