All right I cheated. I googled. But I have read a lot of Chekov so it did come as a curious surprise that he had this Greek connection.

Do ignore the grammatical error of my blog name.

How long have you been trapped, oops, I mean living in Greece? I've been trapped by an evil Greek man, and as a result am curious about contemporary Greek writing and poetry.

Love your blog, do keep up the good work!

Hey, googling isn't cheating! It's, er, simply, googling. A way of life!

I'm so happy you answered this. I thought I'd be answering and writing my own quizzes here, which is isn't as much fun.

Yeah, a nice bit of trivia, huh.

I actually arrived in Greece seven years ago and got trapped by an evil Greek man, who happily loves Sydney, too! YAY! Best of both worlds.
