Holy Souls

Περιγραφή

Three of the seven gates of the city had already been conquered and until yesterday the slaves, the hungry, the cursed, the exterminated, were kneeling wildly, conquering Tripolitsa.
“Where are you going, Nikola, monk?” Kolokotronis shouted angrily and we made him move, to take him back to Arada.
“I’m going to meet our Argyroula”, she replied and cleared her sharp arm. “Ή to avenge her death…”

The first months of the Revolution and the air of freedom sweeps the enslaved lands of the homeland from Macedonia and the Aegean to Messolonghi and Morias.
Nicholas, Despo, Stefanos, Argyro, Simos, the small people of this novel, figures and souls of the Revolution, fight fiercely for the elusive dream and are severely tested by human fate. They are fermented with fire and gunpowder, they fight, they love, they mourn, they suffer. But, at last, they breathe more freely.
After Souli and Zalongo, Psara, Anapli, Tripolitsa. Places of martyrdom, places of sanctuary, but also places of unimaginable heroism.
Where slaves become human.
Where the rays become Greeks.
