Bailey Alexander takes you to so many cities; to parties in Paris and Prague - and pilgrimages in Rome and Bucharest. There's plenty of Venetian gossip in La Serenissima - and love affairs found along the canals of Amsterdam. It all began with a family secret, then a transatlantic crossing, with some pathological grief and financial ruin thrown in - not to mention a trip to Auschwitz. After a decade spent living a peripatetic life there's enough material to keep the reader on a roller coaster. Some readers say 'Odyssey' reads like a detective novel as Bailey searches for a place to call home. There's a happy ending, inspiring you to read Bailey Alexander's follow up book called, "Personal Legends of Piemonte". Eventually she settles down on Lake Garda; promise.
