There was a strong wind blowing across Syntagma Square Friday evening. In front of the Grande Bretagne Hotel, a Rolls-Royce was parked. Across its bumper was a sticker: I'M VOTING FOR CARAMANLIS. Up above, every room in the hotel facing the square was filled with parties of wealthy Greeks waiting with champagne. The crowd, well over 200,000 this time, was older, dressed in furs and Paris fashions; the scents were not of garlic and grass but of Chanel and Givenchy. Many carried candles to light as they had done when Caraman lis returned to Greece last...

The human dimensions of the disaster were brought home to Witteman by the commentary of his escorts. As they...
...crook's cool, is sexually antique. He goes after her like a bullfighter (or the bull) with every gimmick going in the old sexual catch business. He feeds her the lines he figures she wants to hear: "I wouldn't insult a woman by proposing," and the sticker, "A woman is a man who cries." (What instincts.) Which is what--the brute man that he is through and through--she finally succumbs to. He gets his first handle on her heart when he outwits her in a deal over a Louis XVI table, and he clinches the matter when...
