Overview: Athens - The Truth gets to grips with the modern capital of Greece. Written in an easy and generally non-academic style it offers a widely researched feast of details to satisfy both the armchair traveller and the actual traveller alike, whether the latter be tourists, visitors, students, teachers, or business people. Written from a rational and secular point of view, the book provides both a thrilling account of what makes Athens tick and a vivid explanation of why Greece is as it is today. Searching for Manos and his music in and around many of the significant places of Athens, the author observes many of the qualities that infuse not only the music of Greece but also many of the behaviours, aspects, and forms of expression that are typical of Athens. The final chapters allow the reader both an appreciation of the Greek psyche and a clear account of the precarious point at which Greece now stands. A thirteen-page index assists the location of specific details.Reviews:David Cade's book is an exciting, brilliant, entertaining and thought-provoking exploration of modern Athens. The writer visits most of the city's landmarks, monuments, museums, galleries, and other tourist attractions, but also its more obscure, darker corners, always "armed" with an impressive knowledge of Greek history, literature and arts and driven by his love and deep appreciation of said arts (esp. music) and a genuine interest in the people around him. As an Athenian myself, I was impressed by Mr Cade’s keen observations and insights, his vivid descriptions and his capacity to immerse himself in the life of the city and capture its atmosphere without shunning away from its ugly, neglected, dilapidated areas, or from the chaotic, irritating and depressing aspects of Athenian life. "Athens The Truth" is particularly valuable as a depiction of a city and a nation "before the bubble burst", (to quote as the title), but with all the signs of a society in crisis visible to the observant writer (thanks to his capacity to look beneath the surface and interact with people of different backgrounds who offer a variety of perspectives). For anyone wishing to do further reading, there is a wealth of source material included in the "Acknowledgements" section. I thoroughly recommend this book and feel obliged to thank the author for inciting me to do a little more reading about (and a lot more walking around) my city. --- Adriadne Korais, Athens, Greece.I just loved this book. It is obvious that the author has transferred his true feeling of Athens, after experiencing every aspect of this city's life. I would strongly recommend this to any Greek reader, to discover what a foreigner that truly loves Greece has to say about Athens, and to all non-Greeks that could finally see what is true and what is a myth about Greece and especially Athens. --- Angelos Savalas, Athens, Greece.I find this book excellent! The author really makes the reader yearn for Athens. The balance between historical background, personal experience and the description of what he saw in Athens is just right. I was out on the ocean, sailing, and took two books with me, this one and one by Friedrich Dürrenmatt. In the end I mostly read the one about Athens!--- Mattlofsky, AmazonUK.“Athens the Truth: Searching for Manos, Just Before the Bubble Burst” is a heavy title for yet another book on Athens. It suggests it may not be a light read. Only those who are familiar with the composers of Greece may realise that the “Manos” of the subtitle refers to the famous Manos Hadjidakis, and, yes, the burst of the “Bubble” relates to the economic drama which has gripped Greece since 2008. So is this a book with which the average reader will feel uncomfortable? No! This is a fantastic and easy-to-read book which uncovers the “psyche” of Athens.Unlike most books about the Greek capital (particularly travel guides), there isn’t a single picture between the covers of this title but this doesn’t in any way diminish the reader’s experience. I admit I only skimmed through the first 23 pages (the Introduction), because while it's nice to know where the author is coming from, I was more interested in Athens, but from the beginning of the second chapter, as the author sets foot on Greek soil and his adventure begins, I was sold. You feel you’re experiencing Athens for yourself, as if you yourself were writing the book. To put it simply, the account is lifelike and Cade is such a master of observation that he enables the reader to feel the true psyche of Athens just as Greece began to fall into its long and difficult crisis. How can Athens and its inhabitants totter on the edge of damnation, on the edge of the abyss, and yet be enveloped in such grandeur? This book answers this question and more!The adventure begins as the author leaves Athens’s shiny new international airport and takes the bus to the city centre. You imbibe the excursion. The entire route from the a...
