Description

The beaches of Mytilene, where the beast, the sea, devours people, spreading grief and pain. Askhan, a doctor from Iran, manages to reach the rocks from the wild waves, having seen his mother and sister drown. Life shatters him and promises him even more woes. He sees people treating him like a pariah, a piece of trash that must be thrown away. Eurydice, a teacher in refugee camps, shows him that there are still good people, supporting the damned of the earth. Her father, a hard-hearted colonel, drives her out of the house, believing she disgraces him with her stance! Then life stages a story that would make even the most indifferent soften.

A thriller, a mystery with two murders, side by side with the soul, humanity, inhumanity, ingratitude, vindication, the triumph of life, set against the backdrop of the island of the Archangel, of Sappho, of Elytis, of Myrivili, of Theophilos.

A HYMN FOR HUMANITY AND THE SWEEPING POWER OF LOVE, WHICH, LIKE SALT, SMOOTHES EVEN THE SHARPEST ROCKS.

Read an excerpt

The sea was swelling and resembled a beast roaring, whipping the people with its huge mountain-like waves and throwing them forcefully against the sides of the boat, a nutshell lying helpless in the water, suffering for hours now, ready to be torn apart by the turmoil. The people inside screamed desperately, frightened, terrified, panicked, soaked to the bone and to the depths of their souls. All wet to the marrow and all the fluids on their faces and dirty clothes; water, vomit, mucus, all over them, a mask of terror, anxiety, despair, and helplessness, with their lives flickering every second. But this was not the only torment they were trying to get used to in the last hours. Not that it can be gotten used to, but there were so many things they had to face on this hellish journey. Beyond the dizziness caused by the waves and the icy water, which pierced faces and bodies, the wind was yet another great enemy, a sword above their heads.
