What was/is the Metapolitefsi? The answers given are many times more than the 40 years that separate us from 1974. Dimitris Psichogiou presents his own opinion with texts referring to the first decade of it - being at the same time part of it, as they were written during it. The painful experience of military service, the lost expectations for the renewal of the Left, the world of political movements and magazines, the deadlock of terrorism, the celebration of elections, the scientific isolationism, and the final escape from all of these with a sailboat, are autobiographically recorded and integrated into the zeitgeist of the period.
