Description
Specifications
This book does not easily fit into the established bibliographic categories, as it includes not only literary elements but also some biographical details, and a concise recording of ethnographic elements and ecological developments related primarily to the author's unique homeland, concerning both the natural environment and the means or practices of production, the customs, and the habits of the people.
In short, the book includes a plethora of different elements that compose real life. However, the goal is not merely to record or provide an accurate depiction of reality. The experiential insights the author gains at various stages of his life, enriched by the experience of living abroad, the comparison with other countries, and the acquaintance with people from different places, lead him towards a multifaceted socio-political and philosophical reflection by the end of the book.
This reflection concerns not only a critique of everyday life but also a critical assessment of the Greek Left, and a desperate search for the prospects of society at both national and international levels. Because the goal of the book is not only the recording and preservation of memory related to the past but also the ambition to contribute, even slightly, to the change of the existing situation.
And despite the often disappointing or depressing aspects of life, it is precisely this will to change the existing situation and the practical experience of the author that reveal a critical optimism in his outlook for the future.
