For the past year, Greece's financial problems have been a regular feature on the front pages of newspapers and the top of network news broadcasts. But how many people actually know what the hell is going on there? This essay cuts through the jargon and clichés to answer that question with clarity and humor. In his easy-to-follow writing style, Stephen Dove explains not only what the hell is happening in Greece but also why the hell you should care. From the price of European vacations to the potential for massive bank failures, this essay explains how this crisis could affect millions of people outside of Greece. Dove also traces the development of this crisis step-by-step using helpful metaphors and clear prose to give the reader an understanding of the big picture. What the Hell is Going on with the Greek Financial Crisis shows respect for readers’ intelligence without resorting to convoluted academic writing. This essay does not dumb the news down; it makes it clear and relevant.
