Victoria Hislop is quite possibly the biggest expert on Hellenic culture outside Greece. She is author of The Island, a story set on the island of Spinalonga, which is of the coast of Northern Crete and was a number one bestseller in Britain.

A few days ago we were checking the analytics on our website and suddenly noticed a huge influx of traffic from the website of Victoria Hislop. Upon checking her site, we stumbled upon something quite spectacular…..

Victoria has a section on her website outlining her favourite (Greek) things and to our delight we’ve learned that not only is she a fan of Olive Branch Olive Oil; she regards our Oil as her Number 2 favourite (Greek) thing. How delighted we are to learn that such a highly regarded person is amongst our fans! Victoria’s list of favourite (Greek) things can be found on her website on the right hand panel.

Victoria’s newest book ‘One Cretan Evening’ is a collection of five short stories together with a preview of the first chapter of her upcoming novel ‘The Thread’. It can be bought from all online retailers. Further details are available here
