A Lone Red Apple is a tale of magic, mischief, and mayhem unfolding on the Greek island of Mykonos, where the muses come for inspiration and the gods sometimes meddle in the life of mortals. So when Matthew, a shy British Classics professor, comes to teach the poetry of Sappho, Greece�s greatest lyric poet, the Gods sense a challenge. They ensure Matthew meets the passionate local woman Elena, known to her friends as �the female Zorba.� Will she melt his reserve? Will the shy teacher learn that love is to be lived rather than studied? Or must the Gods themselves recognize they are helpless before a stronger Fate?
