Mykonos Muse Book | Assouline
$105
Mykonos is a small island in the Cyclades, surrounded by the blue-green Aegean Sea. Known as the “island of the winds,” it is famous for its white houses and windmills.
Myth says the nearby islets were giants defeated by Hercules. Over the centuries, many cultures have shaped the island.
With only ten thousand people, Mykonos is called the “Ibiza of Greece.” It is loved for its beauty, friendly locals, and beaches like Paradise and Super Paradise. Visitors come from all over the world.
This book tells the story of Mykonos—from a retreat for artists and thinkers, to a haven for the gay community, to one of the world’s top party destinations—while holding on to its myths and ruins.
