Historical novel, which starts from the lazy, oriental scenery of pre-revolutionary Corinth and evolves dramatically in the explosive flames of the 1821 revolution in Corinth and in Moria. At the same time, the tragedy of the life of Kiamil bey, the famous Ottoman leader of Corinth, is narrated, whose death became a song and his mythical treasures are still sought in the castle of Acrocorinth.
The crumbling of human certainties is a second perspective of this novel. When national, social, religious, political or any other upheavals become violent and bloody, they turn human existences into leaves swept away by the winds...
And the desperate cry of realization of the main heroine: "I am leaving, stranger", highlights a deep and always relevant reflection: Do you live and possess your homeland... or do others determine it for you?
