To take your life back from the trauma of previous years.

We carry within us stories that are not our own, fears, silences, and roles that were written onto us before we were even born. In Greece, these stories are passed down from generation to generation like an invisible baton — from the Asia Minor Catastrophe and the Civil War, to migration, to patriarchy. Every family carries its own small piece of history; yet, the wounds of one resemble the wounds of another.
Through narratives, experiences, questions, and exercises, Souzana Papafagou guides us to recognize the intergenerational imprint — where personal history meets the collective.

A book about the transmission of trauma in Greek families, which shapes our way of thinking, our bodies, and our relationships.
A psychodynamic, anthropological, and narrative mapping of the Greek soul. A book-invitation to understand what has marked us without having lived it ourselves.
