Now available: A girl hovers in Kerameikos. An anti-war story in the Athens of Classical times

2011-06-01: Now available the story (in Greek) by Christos Boulotis, A girl hovers in Kerameikos. An anti-war story in the Athens of Classical times, with drawings by Vassilis Papatsarouchas, has been published in PIOP's "Paramythia" series of children's stories. The inspiration for this story lies in the excavation of a mass grave in the vicinity of the ancient Kerameikos cemetery, which appears to have been created for the immediate burial of the victims of the terrible plague of Athens. In this tale, the author attempts to bring to life optimistically the daily life of a young girl in Classical Athens, at the time of Pericles' rule and the Peloponnesian War.
