Paperback. Condition: New. Eager to flee the parochialism of her French upbringing, and a painful family past, the young and beautiful Marina falls in love with a seductive Greek sea-captain she meets at the port of Rouen. She follows him to the Aegean island of Syros to begin a new life as a married woman in the home of her for…midable mother-in-law. Enchanted by the beauty of her surroundings, and fascinated by her husband's erudite younger brother, she aspires to learn all she can about contemporary Greek culture and live up to the ideals of her classical education. But when disaster upends her husband's shipping business and the comfortable stability of their life together, Marina's world slides into a vicious circle of love, passion, and death. Set in the early decades of the twentieth century, this is an exquisite account of the inner life of the heroine, and the collisions of different cultures and ways of being. In prose that ranges from the lyrical to the tersely realist, Karagatsis weaves a classic tale that is wide-ranging in its literary references, and devastating in its psychological nuance. This modern Greek tragedy has been made into a TV series and a highly acclaimed stage play, enjoying three sold-out seasons in Athens, and an international tour. Stavropoulos, Panagiotis (illustrator).

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Junkermanns Swan Song returns to Vasily Karlovich Junkermann at the end of his life. The swaggering adventurer of the first volumeCossack guard, refugee, social climber, and self-styled conqueror of interwar Athensnow confronts the reckoning of age, disillusionment, and decline. Where Junker…mann traced a frenetic rise shaped by appetite, ambition, and desire, this second volume turns inward, offering a darker, more introspective meditation on memory, loss, and mortality. Older and increasingly isolated, Junkermann looks back on a life that now appears at once grand and grotesque, a farce animated by illusions of success, love, and masculine honour that have long since curdled into bitterness and emptiness. As past passions and betrayals resurface, the novel assumes a distinctly Faustian cast, probing the psychic costs of a life spent in pursuit of power and pleasure. Tragic, surreal, and often darkly comic, Junkermanns Swan Song weaves together psychological depth and Freudian undertones with Karagatsiss sharp social insight and mordant humour. In its unflinching portrait of a man undone by the very myth that once sustained him, the novel becomes a haunting reflection on the chimera of success and the devastation that follows when its promise proves hollow.

Paperback. Condition: New. A modernist, picaresque epic, Junkermann recounts the life and times of its titular character, a hedonistic Finnish nobleman with a chequered past who serves as a Cossack guard in the Czar's army, flees the Bolshevik revolution, and seeks his fortune as he travels through Constantinople and finally set…tles in Greece. Set in the social and political turbulence of the interwar period, Vasily Karlovich Junkermann's fortunes reflect both the opportunities and dilemmas of the time. An unscrupulous character, he climbs with singular determination to the top of Athens' social ladder while vacillating between an impossible love for Voula, a young woman engaged to someone else, and his overwhelming attraction to the dangerous Dina. Compared to Fitzgerald's Great Gatsby, the novel explores similar themes of society and class; love, marriage, and concepts of value; changing notions of masculinity and honour; and the role of memory and the past. Written with Karagatsis' characteristic irreverence, humour, and eye for the beauties of the Greek landscape, the novel provides a nuanced portrait of the myth of the self-made man -- from a Greek perspective.
