Description
A collection of darkly humorous stories that challenge the idyllic image of a Greek holiday island. Christos Ikonomou's tales explore the complexities of human nature, as a group of Athenian friends seek to escape their economic crisis by moving to an Aegean island. However, they soon find themselves entangled in the same web of money, power, and violence that they thought they had left behind. The locals view them with suspicion, and the friends are forced to confront the harsh realities of their new surroundings. Ikonomou's writing is both biting and humorous, offering a searing critique of the social and economic systems that govern our lives. Through his stories, Ikonomou sheds light on the darker aspects of human experience, revealing the ways in which we often repeat patterns of behavior despite our best intentions. This collection of short stories is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.
