Specifications
The "Order" by Dido Sotiriou is a book of political literature with intense experiences. It vividly brings to life the adventures of post-liberation Greece (1944-1952), which has not ceased to carry the fate of Sisyphus.
Set against the backdrop of the arrest, trial, and execution of Kostis, a young man who we soon learn is Nikos Beloyannis, we watch with bated breath as the hopes, dreams, and sacrifices of the Greek people are shattered into chaos as imperialism solidifies its path in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Nightmarish plots by foreign and domestic secret services, anti-communist hysteria, trials, executions, terror aimed at dismembering the democratic forces. The sacrifice of Beloyannis. The truth about Ploumbidis. The mistakes of the Left and the Center. Known documents and documents that are seeing the light of day for the first time.
The "Order" has been characterized as "a shocking major work of political responsibility." "Written objectively, factually, and therefore convincingly, with a Brechtian form of distancing, it is ultimately a hymn to the bravery, patriotism, and integrity of the proud generation of the Resistance that was slaughtered..."
