Gregorios, Hieromonk
The Divine Liturgy, A Commentary in the Light of the Fathers (
(New - will be sent to you direct from the publisher in Greece) Cell of St John the Theologian, Mount Athos. First English edition, translated from the Greek by Elizabeth Theokritoff; 390 pages, sewn binding. Contents: Introduction; I. Preparation for the Liturgy (The Rite of the Kairos, The Vesting of the Celebrants, The Service of Preparation of the Eucharistic Gifts); II. The Divine Liturgy (The Litany of Peace and the Antiphons, The Entrance with the Gospel Book and the Sacred Readings, The Litany and the Great Entrance, The Litany of the Proskomide and the Creed, The Holy Anaphora, Diptychs and Prayers, Holy Communion, Dismissal); III. Thanksgiving after Holy Communion; Glossary, and Indexes. "When Christ first spoke about the Mystery of the Divine Eucharist, He called Himself the 'Bread of life' which came down at the moment of the Eucharistic annunciation into the virgin Church, and the holy Church becomes the 'good earth and blessed' which brings forth the Bread of life. It is this reality of Christ's descent and His presence within the Church that we experience in the Divine Liturgy. The Divine Liturgy is Christ in our midst. The holy Evangelists and the God-bearing Fathers spoke to us of Christ as they experienced Him when He was with them and as they experienced Him as a living reality in the Divine Liturgy: 'That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon and touched with our hands, concerning the Word of life' (John 1 : 1). It is from the writings and eucharistic experiences of these saints, who have seen the true Light, who have heard the Word and 'touched the immaculate head of the Master', and who are eternally contemporary, that the present commentary is compiled.

Efstathiou, Evangelía
Oi desmotes ton skipn
Sebastian Daniel Alexander Caine was raised with cruelty for only one purpose: to fulfill the scriptures of an ancient celtic prophecy which believed blindly in two rival mystical guilds. He had the mark. He was a royal descendant and was destined to be united with the One to bring into the world a creature with perfect invulnerability from all diseases, intelligent and charismatic, who was to determine the fate of the world. Carolina grew up sheltered from the same fate, considering that the lotus sign on her skin was a random defect, although the little girl sensed that its existence would somehow determine her destiny.

Karafilly,Irena [Friedman]
He Asymbibasti Mousa (The Reluctant Muse)
" In the early 1930s, a Greek girl named Calliope Adham comes of age on Lesbos, born into a turbulent century in which the Aegean island absorbs thousands of Anatolian refugees, is occupied by the Germans, ravaged by civil war, and oppressed by a ruthless dictatorship. This is the background to THE RELUCTANT MUSE, a historic novel depicting the tumultuous life of a passionate Greek protofeminist. The daughter of a local headmaster, Calliope Adham grows upto be a schoolmistress and village iconoclast. When the Germans take over the island, she is engaged as their liaison officer, a position which she accepts reluctantly, but which is destined to play a pivotal role in shaping her entire life. The story deals with love, war, and an extraordinary woman's revolt against social conventions, but it is as much a portrait of an evolving Greek village as of the brilliant woman at its center."
