Athens, Paris and the Greek islands are the settings of the collection of narratives Two Eras into a Third One (Dyo Epohes Se Mia Triti), where emblematic Mediterranean family figures stand out, with colorful relatives in the background, and unexpected summer loves seem endless and are breathlessly relived.


These eighteen short stories, meticulously written in a minimalistic style and garnished with everyday life details, trigger emotion. It is a book you just can’t put down.

The author, a mathematician and new technologies professor at the University of Athens, holding the leading role in the stories, discretely “deconstructs” his whole universe: his professorial career, the sexual liberation of the 70’s, the “comme il faut”, quiet and settled way life, the conservative social values.

The narrator, in this authentically humorous work of literature, displays no aspiration to change or restore reality. He just philosophizes over the human condition with a smile –without laughing with or at it.
