Review
“The Marked Men is a lament for Greece, the story of a handful of army deserters at the time of the Greek Civil War, trying to dig themselves in and defend a rural border village in the hope of rousing the countryside to a state of rebellion. . . . Mrs. Kazantzakis [in her foreword] is right to praise this novel's power, and she also might have asked, 'Have you ever heard of such a novel that takes place decades ago being banned in a country?' This is such a novel.”
- Book World
“Nearly every Greek is marked it seems: the Dolianites by geography, the priest psychologically, and Mandas merely because his father fought with a rightist wing of the Resistance. Among the burst skulls and aborted relationships there are some penetrating characterizations.”
- Kirkus Reviews
“Vividly and realistically conveys the terror and confusion of the civil war and the yearning of the ordinary people―a 2000-year dream―to be masters of their own destiny in a country at peace with itself and its neighbors.”
