10211X1 Dover Publications, New York: 1982. 413 pages. Softcover. Good condition. The sirocco is a hot, moist wind that blows north across the Mediterranean from the deserts of Africa. On the fictional island of Nepenthe, the setting of South Wind, the sirocco is a palpable presence - one to which the natives are accustomed or resigned, but which sometimes tempts foreigners to strange actions. These actions and their consequences, in the context of the island's life and history, are the subject matter of this urbane and polished philosophical novel. ISBN: 0486243613 $25.54USD
