Time Was Away: A Journey Through Corsica
Alan Ross
Although admitting, perhaps too modestly, to the influence of Graham Greene's "The Lawless Roads" and "Journey Without Maps" and therefore 'too inclined to see Corsica in terms of defeated priests, corrupt politicians and saintly monks', the author describes Corsica of 1947 which he visited, in the footsteps of Edward Lear.
