Description & Specifications

The widely read Christmas tale by Papadiamantis in a picture book format. Two great creators come together in this fresh edition of "In Christ in the Castle" by the great storyteller of the Greek soul, Alexandros Papadiamantis.

Eleftherios Mystakas approaches the original work with clarity of vision and profound respect, illustrating it. The often difficult text for today's reader is resurrected through the sacred illustrations, breathing the air of today and transporting us to the cold island winter of the previous century, among a group of people daring to step outside the circle of safety and achieving what is desired by every person, in every era: the encounter with the unknown, yet beloved "other."

The danger is not faced recklessly, but at the same time, it does not act as a hindrance. The danger in "In Christ in the Castle" serves as a strong incentive for planning, for unity, for a collective exit from the status quo, from complacency.

Papadiamantis and Mystakas unite their forces and invite us to a dynamic present. The story "In Christ in the Castle" by Alexandros Papadiamantis was first published in the magazine Estia in 1892 and is one of his most famous Christmas tales. It was first published as a book in 1912, as part of his collection of stories "The Nostalgist."
