Story
In this slim memoir, Theodor Kallifatides explores the interplay of meaningful living and meaningful work, and the timeless question of how to reconcile oneself to aging. But he also comments on worrying trends in contemporary Europe - from religious intolerance and prejudice against immigrants to housing crises and gentrification - and his sadness at the battered state of his beloved Greece. Kallifatides offers an eloquent, thought-provoking meditation on the writing life, and an author’s place in a changing world.

Story
Bombs fall over a Greek village during World War II, and a teacher takes her students to a cave for shelter. There she tells them about another war - when the Greeks besieged Troy. Day after day, she recounts how the Greeks suffer from thirst, heat, and homesickness, and how the opponents meet - army against army, man against man. Helmets are cleaved, heads fly, blood flows. And everything had begun when Prince Paris of Troy fell in love with king of Sparta Menelaus's wife, the beautiful Helen, and escaped with her to his homeland.

Story
En este recuento perspicaz de La Ilíada, una joven maestra griega recurre al poder duradero del mito para ayudar a sus estudiantes a sobrellevar los terrores de la ocupación nazi. Las bombas caen sobre un pueblo griego durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y una maestra lleva a sus alumnos a una cueva para refugiarse. Allí les cuenta sobre otra guerra, cuando los griegos sitiaron a Troya. Día tras día, cuenta cómo los griegos sufren de sed, calor y nostalgia, y cómo se enfrentan los oponentes: ejército contra ejército, hombre contra hombre.

Story
"Nadie debería escribir después de los setenta y cinco años", había dicho un amigo. A los setenta y siete, bloqueado como escritor, Theodor Kallifatides toma la difícil decisión de vender el estudio de Estocolmo, donde trabajó diligentemente durante décadas, y retirarse. Incapaz de escribir y, sin embargo, incapaz de no escribir, viaja a su Grecia natal con la esperanza de redescubrir la fluidez perdida del lenguaje.En este bellísimo texto, Kallifatides explora la relación entre una vida con sentido y un trabajo con sentido, y cómo reconciliarse con el envejecimiento.

Story
È il 1945, la guerra volge al termine. Ma in un piccolo villaggio greco la vita continua come niente fosse, in una convivenza con gli occupanti tedeschi ormai diventata abitudine. Un giorno, però, cominciano a cadere, inaspettate, le bombe inglesi. Anche sulla scuola. Gli studenti si rifugiano in una grotta, guidati dalla loro insegnante, l’incantevole Signorina, "sottile come una lama di luce". E qui lei, per far passare il tempo, racconta loro di un’altra guerra, quella combattuta dagli Achei sotto le mura di Troia per le grazie della bellissima Elena, rapita da Paride al suo sposo Menelao.
