True Tales of a Traveller 4: Alternative Medicine

Alternative Medicine is the fourth in the True Tales of a Traveller series of stories, and is set mostly in Greece and Egypt in 1983. At around 13,000 words, this story is a lengthy short story which may need more than one sitting. Like the other stories in the series, it provides not only an entertaining read, but also information on all the places visited, some relevant only to the era in which the story is set, but most still relevant at the time of publication. In addition to being a travel story, Alternative Medicine is also a story about career hopes, delusions, expectations, and opportunities.
