Lose yourself in bestselling author Lawrence Durrell's sublime novel about a group of English tourists trapped in the minotaur's labyrinth on Crete … 'Spellbinding … A fine storyteller.' Guardian 'Superb … Quite simply a lovely work of art.' New York Times

A group of English tourists have come ashore from their cruise ship to explore the island of

Crete. This motley crew – including a painter, spiritualist, spinster, soldier, convalescent, and elderly couple – are holidaying to seek respite from a broken post-war world. But their journey reaches a disastrous climax when they visit a cave reputed to be the

legendary labyrinth of the minotaur, and become trapped within …

Set in the glorious

Mediterranean landscapes which

Lawrence Durrell so famously evoked in his travel writing and novels,

The Dark Labyrinth is a morality tale unlike any other. Artfully blending horror and humour, comedy and tragedy, witty allegory and profound philosophy, it is a sublime novel, as refreshing today as it was decades ago. 'Superb, not only in the great passages of poetical description but also [the] casual wit and the brilliance of comment.'Observer
