It is the moment in the game when you can no longer influence the future, either positively or negatively. That's when the famous phrase "Rien ne va plus" is heard from the croupier. You either lose or win everything you have bet. Usually, you lose...
Louisa, a sensitive writer, falls in love with and marries Alkis, an eccentric man with purple eyes. On their wedding night, Alkis commits a shocking act that marks the beginning of the end. Infidelity, humiliation, and divorce follow. And just as the reader is about to curse or sympathize with the characters, a major twist comes that leaves them surprised. The heroine of the book tells and retells the same story, giving a different interpretation each time. Is she searching for the truth or the lie? She herself doesn't know, and perhaps she doesn't want to know. However, Margarita Karapanou knows very well the game of contradictions in every love relationship. The lover and the mistress, the angel and the demon, the master and the servant intertwine and collaborate in a sharp, daring, and desperately comedic novel that reveals the emotional burdens that fatally generate or wound any coexistence.
