2023 has already ushered in the new year, but left behind a rich literary “treasure”. So let’s take a look at books which… stood out last year and their fans “proved” it by declaring them Best Seller!
“Tomb in the Sand”
Kastaniotis publications
Gitanjali Sri chooses to write in her own language (Hindi) despite having a global knowledge of facts to give a very personal character to this book. She tries to recount what happened and at the same time in her mind and soul she rewrites history as she probably would like it to be. Mama, the protagonist, makes small daily, successive revolutions, respecting her existence and wanting to contribute to the big change. He is looking for a world that he has read regarding somewhere or simply dreamed regarding.
“The path”
by Michael Puett and Christine Gross-Lo (University Press of Crete)
It builds bridges between Cultures and Nations. Even from the original cover it invites the reader to get it and explore it. In an era of divisions and conflicts we must perceive the path that will bring us closer to people regardless of origin and origin.
“The Beekeeper from Aleppo”
by Christy Lafferty (Keydarithms Publications)
War erodes walls, cities and most of all the very lives of people. Eyes and senses will see the rottenness of the world. The couple must endure. The effort is so great, that when the bora wears off, the marks are indelible on the body, but mostly internally. Relationships between people are injured. Responsibilities are being sought. They wonder if they did the right thing. Did they have any other choice?
“Death of a Traveler”
by Didier Fassin (Polis Editions)
Through vivid descriptions, sensitive moments and a shocking epilogue we are led to question, the critical filter and the rejection of any form of authority. In our time, everything must be investigated in depth and the bad texts must be brought to light. This is our only hope, so that we can find the path to justice once more. The silent tolerance and pulling back of the curtain that signify fear and audacity must end as phenomena. The time has come to defend the dignity of the human condition.
“The Coming of the Best”
by Andreas Wagner (University Press of Crete)
The ideal complement to Darwin’s theory of evolution comes from a very important contemporary Austrian evolutionary biologist. Through his study he documents blurred points and explains the diverse adaptations that occur every day and are now recorded at a higher level with the help of technology.
“The Myth of the Normal”
of Dr. Gabor Mate (Key Books)
The distinguished scientist (author of “When the Body Says No”) documents the events through his own eyes, dispels common myths and connects human ailments with the declining state of the societies in which we live. The importance of trauma, what trauma is and management over the life course. Simple, simple, essential reason that made the book a best seller internationally.
“Felicita”
by Maro Doukas (Pataki publications)
A subversive novel that runs through Greece. “Kavouras”, a man who carries his own rejections that have indelibly scarred his life, suddenly finds himself on the street. Meeting Felicita will give him space and time to think and redefine his goals. But how did Konstantinos Kavourakis reach this pivotal point?
“The Gateway to the Journey of No Return”
by David Diop (Polis Editions)
The author has the unique ability to smooth the facts through the composition of letters and adjectives with nouns. It traces various marches on the road to the blood-based hegemony of Europe. Animal terror that emphatically confirms that man is part of the animal kingdom and tenderness coexist harmoniously, even if it seems like an oxymoron. Filters to hard, raw realism give the opportunity for a breather.
“The utility of the useless”
by Thanasis Lala (Armos publications)
A deep confession of a high level. This time he does not have an interviewer in front of him, but a mirror. Is Lalas asking himself and the reader who is confronted with his questions? Thanasis in his most personal book brings us face to face with our journey. “After all, what we experienced is always in action.” “Lived”…
«Bournville»
by Jonathan Coe (Polis Publications)
Memories, journeys, moments that marked the English people. As the plot unfolds we realize how fluid the times we live in are. We are acrobatic on a stretched rope. However, as we wrote in our introduction, there is an indirect reduction from the one to the whole, to the whole.
“The night Pavlos left”
Xenophon Kontiadis (Topos publications)
“The Dopamine Generation”
by Anna Lemke (Pataki publications)
For the importance of an entire mechanism that targets dopamine. For the model that has prevailed in society and for our own body that we must know how it reacts and how it should not react depending on the stimulus.
“American Education”
by Ben Lerner (House Publications)
A brilliant novel that might be an essay or even a poem. It manages to get its ideas across so directly to the reader that it makes it one of the top reads of 2023.
“The memory of the body”
by Ahlam Mostagamni (Kastaniotis Editions)
Perhaps the most profound sentiment of this year from Algeria with love for the whole world. One love, one city, the people who make it up. What does the past hide and how difficult are the decisive decisions in the present?
