Self-appointed avenger of social injustice, twisted criminal nature, a rebellious fighter against God - what is ultimately Fragkoyiannou, the `Murderess` of Alexandros Papadiamantis?
Does the author empathize with the victim or the perpetrator, does he ideologically identify with his heroine, or does he ponder, like Dostoevsky, about `Evil`, about the abyss of human existence - always, of course, from the steadfast perspective of her Orthodox faith.
The most well-known, and for many the highest work of the great Skiathos author, has provoked as few others have, so many controversial interpretations and discussions that have not ceased to this day - at least an indication of its spiritual endurance throughout the passage of time.
