London, United Kingdom, Vintage, 1999. Reprint, Binding: Soft Cover, Very Good. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall 0099422042 Paperback It is 1941 and Captain Antonio Corelli, a young Italian officer, is poster to the Greek island of Cephallonia as part of the occupying forces. At first he is ostracised by the locals, but as a conscientious but far from fanatical soldier, whose main aim is to have a peaceful war, he proves in time to be civilised, humorous - and a consummate musician.
