Το Μακρύ Σοκάκι - Second Edition

“Makry Sokaki” by Giorgos Giotsas is a gripping novel that delves into the dark secrets of a small community. The story begins with the murder of Areti, a girl ignored by the society of Platanias, as the perpetrators are the arrogant children of the wealthy merchant Miliosis and the victim is deemed "slow." While her death is ruled an accident, thirteen-year-old Zisis, who has a brother with a mental illness, feels overwhelmed by the revelations. His grandmother warns him about the long alley, the narrow path connecting the village square to the cemetery, and the calls heard at night under the full moon. But someone else will heed the call.

The second edition of the book includes the short story “Just Because You Don’t See Me Doesn’t Mean I Don’t See You,” offering an additional layer to this already captivating work. The book has been awarded the first prize at the Everly 2023, acknowledging its exceptional contribution to contemporary Greek horror literature. With 126 pages and dimensions of 14x21 cm, it promises an engrossing read for fans of the genre.
