2008" 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."

2015Smyrna, one of the wealthiest cities and the most advanced civilizations in the Middle East (present-day Turkey) with a unique mixture of many nationalities-Greek, Armenian, Jewish, Turkish, European, and American-perished into ashes in September 1922. The Smyrniots became victims through the orders of Mustafa Ataturk, who was responsible for one of the largest purges of humanity known to man. This eradication led to the loss of 3.5 million Greek and Armenian Orthodox Christians who had occupied Asia Minor since the time of Alexander the Great. In September 1922, Ataturk led his troops into Smyrna (now Izmir), a predominantly Greek Christian City that was known as the City of Infidels to the Turks. The Turks then proceeded to indulge in an orgy of pillage, rape, and slaughter. This City of Infidels was cleansed and destroyed and with it the last hub of Christians in Turkey. The Whispering Voices of Smyrna is proof of the horrible atrocities the Turks, whether private citizens or government officials, committed by plundering, torturing, mutilating, burning alive, and massacring women, children, and aged people. The book details these brutal acts that were decided, planned, and directed by the Turkish central authorities and were aimed at cleansing lands under Turkish control of non-Muslim citizens. The Whispering Voices of Smyrna combines history and storytelling so that readers understand how the decision by government and military leaders of the victorious Allied powers affected the people of Smyrna. Through the eyes of the Samithakis family, one lives the cataclysmic events that determined the fate of Asia Minor following World War I. The Samithakis family lived a life of luxury among the different nationalities in Smyrna, until the Turks forced them to flee with other Greek, Armenian and European residents of Smyrna. In the course of their struggle to save themselves from the fire, the massacres, rapes, mutilations and plundering, they lost one another and became refugees, beggars and exiles. The reader also lives through the stages of destruction of a civilization centered on the once-thriving and beloved city of Smyrna. 350p.
2003Scattered Leaves is a true story of one family in Trikorfon, Greece, as well as the story of many Greek families who suffered during the devastation of the Italian and German invasions and the Civil War of 1945-49. It offers a glimpse of the many layers of destruction and horror that resulted form starvation, executions, and terrorism by the Greek Communist guerrillas. This is the tale of Martha and Mitro"s love for each other, their children, their country, and above all, their second country, America. Their children and grandchildren reaped the benefits of their courage and faith, and Scattered Leaves is a testament to the power of the call of freedom. 480p. map .llus. bibliography. index.
