They stand naked in front of windows, giving birth to fish, one foot in the water and the other in the mud, next to toasters, lamps, photocopiers, holding bones in one hand and half-eaten burgers in the other, balancing from post to post, between earth and sky, between a "and" and a "and", half-shirt and half-nightgown, comically tragic, dreaming of straw hats and happy parents, ghosts that met halfway, disappeared people who have just appeared.
Fictions of microcosms that move between the limits of magical and raw realism, universality and locality. Texts that are symptoms of an individual and social pathology. The Intermediaries (Nefeli Publications 2022) shift vision and perception, composing paradoxical intermediate worlds and magnifying, at times playfully and at times vitriolically, fragments of contemporary reality.
Continuing and evolving Ioannou's distinct personal style, the collection, with its also intermediate linguistic and narrative form, penetrates into the world of human relationships through prose that engages with poetic, theatrical, and visual elements. Short stories that illuminate the pieces of a body, a footprint, a country, sensitively exploring the trauma that is passed from person to person and from generation to generation.
