MEDIA REVIEWS

“Describes how people in Trikala on the plain of Thessaly reach out towards selective instances of the past that assist them in understanding the turmoil around them. … the study is an intriguing addition to our understanding of the immense impact that the Greek crisis has on individual lives and the wider fabric of society. … the book is written in a highly readable and accessible manner and has potential to reach out even toward a non-academic audience.” (Janka Hrckova, Focaal Journal of Global and Historical Anthropology, Vol. 78, 2017)
