“Maria Lampadaridou Pothou studied the primary sources and chose to present the metaphysical aspect of History in her novel.
(…)
At any rate (the author) will add her metaphysical dimension or charge, because she does not aspire to rewrite history as it was written, but to represent it through her own participation as subject.
(…)
The author is conscious of the fact that she is talking about something that now exists in the sphere of miracle, and that fact intensifies the tragic dimension of her experience.”
