Description
The Other Alexander is a poignant allegory that explores the complexities of human nature. Written by Margarita Liberaki in the 1950s, this poetic drama reenacts Greek tragedy in its evocation of a country torn apart by civil war and family divisions.
A tyrannical father leads a double life, with two families and children sharing the same first names. As his half-siblings meet, love, hate, and betray one another, they must confront their doubles and question their individual and collective identities. Liberaki's sharp prose weaves together elements of Kafka's style to create a haunting tale of psychological and political tension.
Considered one of Greece's most distinctive voices, Margarita Liberaki's work has been hailed for its poetic power and riveting storytelling. This edition is a testament to her enduring legacy as a writer of profound insight into the human condition.
