"The Galatsana's Madness" is a narrative that skillfully navigates between myth and history. It depicts a society in which people - Greeks and Turks - coexist and clash, facing moral dilemmas and testing their personal limits. It is a historical fairy tale, where emotions and moral values, solidarity and a sense of duty, shape the image of that generation of Greeks that shaped our historical path and continues to define us.
The plot, the well-structured and accurately portrayed characters, and the incredible liveliness of the narrative, engage the reader and - accompanied by the sounds of Mania's song - sweep them into an enjoyable dance of power and optimism.
I highly recommend it without reservation!

A book that captures events exactly as our ancestors conveyed them, which took place during the period of Turkish rule.
