This is the pocket edition of my book ( english and greek text) on the islanders of Leros, in Dodecanese. the book is also available as a larger format.
Since adolescence, I have strongly felt my roots in ancient Greece, and on this island I have found many aspects common to our tragicomic personality, but with a strong prevalence of the humorous aspect, which for me is fundamental.
About this work the Italian writer Erri De Luca wrote:” I leaf through the reticent album of an island lover. Reticent because he sticks to black and white, as if we foreigners were not entitled to witness the colors. I think I agree. After all, someone who writes stories in a notebook reduces them to a black-on-white draft. From these descendants of the solemn mythological revelries the photographer steals, together with the image, the shadow, which is the stain left on the ground or on a wall from Greek soul.”
