Why did I read this book?

"When talk with friends goes "Captain Corelli... Captain Corelli... Cyeptyin Cyerelleeh!" and though you may be soft through years of smacky booze, and though you cannot speak, nor raise a single synapse, still you know for sure that they are wankers...."

You've read the book...

...now see the play. Not to mention the merchandising. Sadly, I didn't manage to get a photo of the themed display in Waterstones (the novel placed alongside tourist guides to Kephalonia) or the music shop (sheet music for the film placed alongside mandolins).
