This book describes the culture and society that have defined Mykonos over the past century - from the days when it was a refuge for celebrities and elites like Le Corbusier and Antonis Benakis, to when it was a haven for the gay community, to its predominant party scene. - all the while surrendering the reader to the ruins and myths hidden there.

Located in the Cyclades and surrounded by the blue-green waters of the Aegean, lies the whitewashed, windmill-strewn Mykonos, the island of the winds. This ancient island and its surrounding islands, mythologised as the bodies of gods felled by Hercules in ancient times, are older than legend and have played host to countless cultures for over millennia. At forty square miles and with a population of just ten thousand, the 'Ibiza of Greece' is prized for its beautiful architecture, hospitable and open-minded locals and fantastic beaches. With names such as 'Paradise' and 'Super Paradise', the sands of these shores have captured the imagination and hearts of industry titans, artists and partygoers from all over the world, marking it as a stable cosmopolitan destination and as one of the main havens on the jet set circuit.
