A life narrative; Yes, but where the narrator forgets themselves because they are entirely focused on others, oriented toward the world. This world is Greece of yesterday and today, through the development of French cultural centers, from the crisis in Cyprus and the Turkish occupation to the health crisis and the challenges of tomorrow, life in villages and metropolises. And in contrast is France, Paris, Sorbonne, the French, as they live in France and as they become when settling in Greece. It is childhood, imprinted with that innocent emotion that invades the heart of truth. It is the discovery of love and the long experience of friendship that fuels a gallery of painted faces but always filled with humanity. It is geopolitics, observed from the height of man, inspiring a hymn to global peace. Finally, it is the sweet nostalgia of our past – as the author is first and foremost a great reader of Proust – which becomes intensely moving when history decides to turn it into a world that has been lost today, and that we have become "children of the hare."
