New Greeknotes! Busy with work so a bit of a slim post this week. Still! Some great socialising, a poor book, a little app, and throwing in the towel on swimming 🪦

Several well-known journalists briefly detained in İstanbul municipality investigation

The journalists' statements in support of İmamoğlu following his detention was cited as evidence in their involvement in the alleged criminal network run by the suspended mayor.

Book review: The Colossus of Maroussi by Henry Miller ⭐️

"The Englishman in Greece is a farce and an eyesore: he isn't worth the dirt between a poor Greek's toes."

The Colossus of Maroussi by Henry Miller | felix.gripe
Being something of a colossus of Marousi myself (tall, lives in Marousi), I was excited to discover this book by Henry Miller, whom I have never read.

Superb museum of greek modern art. Lots of woodcuts which I'm very fond of, plenty of cubist paintings, and some really amazing photos from the civil war.
