A young girl, Ismene, grows up in a magical garden in Kifissia, trying to take control of her life, away from the emotional burdens and dead ends of the previous generation.
A great love, a family secret that takes time to be revealed, unique characters in small and big roles, as well as unknown aspects of our history, compose the scenery of the fiction. Rich and poor, locals and refugees coexist around mansions and gardens, shaping the human geography of the city.
An exciting novel, in contrast to the Straw Hats, that takes us on a journey to Kifissia in the '50s and '60s and captivates us with its plot, sensitivity, and freshness of its images.
