Description
Once in the village of Krysa, Cofina returns Violeta—according to the villagers, a mad old woman whom her own family sent away as a little girl to a clinic for the mentally ill and then hastily pretended she never existed.
But is Violeta really as insane as the village gossips claim? And did she steal valuable offerings from the church, as some believe?
Simos doesn’t want to believe idle talk. He goes against his friends and their leader—the hooligan Marcos, who has not the slightest doubt that all the stories about Violeta are true and is determined to expose her. However, when Simos meets the old woman, he learns that the truth about her is actually far more bitter than any rumor.
The audiobook is read by Georgiy Gelasov—a mysterious person who is said to serve unnoticed in a well-known Moscow theater; some claim he resembles the actor from the “Workshop” of Petr Fomenko, Ivan Vakulenko. Some think it’s the same person, others insist they’re completely different people. Let this remain a mystery for now…
Maria Papayanni (born 1964) is a Greek writer, author of books for children and teenagers. In 2020, her novella “The Lonely Tree” was nominated for the international H. C. Andersen literary prize.
