A great-granddaughter follows in the footsteps of her great-grandfather, Panagis.
Among a handful of photographs, scattered words, and a gaze frozen in time lies an entire life.
From Stromi in Phocis and the mines of Lavrio to Ellis Island and the mines of Utah, Panagis followed the path of thousands of Greeks who left their homeland in search of a better future, in a foreign land filled with promises.
A century later, his descendant begins a personal quest. Through archives, immigrant records, forgotten documents, and memories preserved from one generation to the next, she reconstructs his journey. And as she draws closer to the man behind the documents, she discovers that she is not only telling the story of Panagis’s life, but also the story of an entire generation.
A historical narrative based on true events, archival sources, and family testimonies. A moving exploration of memory, migration, and the bonds that connect generations, where personal history meets History.
The book is available in Greek.
