Meer over het boek

The life of Elias Petropoulos, a provocative Greek writer, is marked by his imprisonment during the Junta and ongoing persecution by the judiciary into the 1980s. Renowned as a poet and "urban folklorist," his extensive body of work challenges societal norms and elicits strong reactions. His unique perspective and experiences provide a critical lens on Greek culture and politics, making his contributions both significant and contentious in the literary landscape of the twentieth century.
