Award-winning, bestselling author Peter Barber
His humorous and heartfelt travel memoirs reveal the real Greece – not just sun and sea, but the wonderful people, rich history and culture. If you can’t get to Greece, live Greece through his books.
Peter Barber’s latest book – The Dunstable Ladies’ Dance Academy – is a warm, humorous and uplifting story set in Dunstable, inspired by a real dance class. It follows a diverse group of local women who come together for fitness and, without quite realising it, create something far more meaningful. A community. Through laughter, shared moments, and the occasional chaos of trying to follow the right steps, the story explores friendship, belonging, and the quiet power of simply turning up.

Peter’s latest Zorba book – Culture, Chaos and Other Greek Complications
Welcome back to Zorba’s hilarious taverna.
Telios has survived weddings, storms, gossip, power cuts, bad fish, family arguments, and a goat with strong opinions about paperwork.
But nothing has prepared the village for official recognition.
When a cream envelope arrives from Athens naming Telios a Village of Culture, Alex suddenly finds herself dealing with inspectors, ceremonies, reports, committees, and the terrifying possibility that the village may have to become organised.
