Patrick Leigh Fermor: An Adventure by Artemis Cooper

5.0

A lovely biography of an extraordinary man. Thoroughly enjoyed this.

Two of my favorite bits--among many--from this book. A quote from one of his friends: "Wouldn't it be lovely if Paddy came in pill-form, so you could take one whenever you felt depressed."

And this note, which Paddy wrote in a book he was reading when he felt his end was near: "Love to all and kindness to all friends, and thank you for a life of great happiness."

What a blessing to be able to write that!
