Looking for a Greek/Mediterranean novel with mythology, food, drink, philosophy and love of life, not a solely romantic novel.

As above, hopefully capturing the elements above somewhat. Fairly easy on genre other than straight romance. Think persephone’s garden, moussaka and wine, swimming in the med while contemplating the meaning of it all.

It might not contain all of the elements, but you’ve probably thought of something that might fit by now, so tell me what it is 😀
