| Abstract: | Today I do not enjoy having to go down to Xlendi Bay, in Gozo, not even for a meal in one of the many restaurants that have opened during the last 50 years. It is not the Xlendi I loved so much, anymore. My childhood Xlendi – the name is a mythical Byzantine word which resonates ‘xelandion’, ‘a ship’ – was one of the most romantic, serene, tranquil places in Gozo. It was a fabulous bay. I loved Xlendi much more than any other bay in Gozo, where I was born and brought up. [Excerpt] |
