In "Calm," Venizis tells the story of a group of refugees from Minor Asia who come to settle, in 1923, in the desolate land of Anavyssos.
From the collective despair, faces gradually emerge, the passion for life that must go on, the dreams that take root only to be struck again by fate, the search for salvation and tranquility.
A "synthetic work of epic inspiration and biblical grandeur," imbued with deep humanity, the book has been loved as few others in Greece and has seen successive editions, even during the Occupation.
