Sotiriou Konstantia

“I kefali tou Chatsworth” (“The Head of Chatsworth”) & “Sta splachna tis Serifou” (“In the Bowels of Serifos”) by Konstantia Sotiriou and Alexandra Christakaki
Novelist Konstantia Sotiriou and journalist and author Alexandra Christakaki discuss their two recent books. The red thread that runs through both is the stories of exploitation of the protagonists, who were miners in Serifos and Cyprus, invisible to the authorities and voiceless.
