Item description from seller

"This authentic and unexpurgated collection of jokes and tales told by today's Greeks, demonstrates the universality of humor as it reflects particular and pervasive concerns of modern Greek society.To be found here are stories about the "clever Greeks", ethnic slurs, political jokes (many of which are directed against the repressive Papadopoulos regime) and humor told at the expense of the clergy and the Greek Orthodox Church." 262p.
