À La Canée, Rosa Bonaparte, venue de Marseille avec douze prostituées, installe un bordel dans une aile désaffectée de la mairie. Le lieu devient rapidement le centre de tous les trafics et de toutes les manigances politiques. Tous les personnages, clients et prostituées, sont caricaturaux car ils incarnent des archétypes. S'ils sont inventés, le reste : flottes occidentales, bordel, etc. est historiquement vrai. Rosa Bonaparte est un hommage à Mme Hortense, la prostituée « retraitée » d’Alexis Zorba et donc de Zorba le Grec...
