The modern suburbs of Athens, stretching from the sea to the foot of the mountains which surround the city, present a singularly uninviting aspect to the casual visitor: a concrete jungle, devoid of charm or interest. Yet in 'Athens: The Suburbs' the reader is led beyond the appearances of this seemingly featureless conurbation to reveal some of the historical memories, tales, and the folk traditions, which lie buried beneath the surface. In Athens: The Suburbs read stories about Kifissia, Maroussi, Pendeli, Halandri, Filothei, Kaisariani, Papagou, Dafni, Haidari, Korydallos, Kokkinia, Piraeus, Faliron, Nea Smyrni, Glyfada, Vari and Vouliagmeni.
