Femmes de Lia (Épire) entre 1935 et 1948

Abstract

This largely contested book presents the life of a woman leaving in an isolated village of Epirus from her marriage till her execution by the Democratic Army in 1948. As she was leaving in an ultra-traditional place and family, in a village located in the center of the conflicts, as all her neighbors, she finds herself in the very heart of many events that she must face even if she can’t understand them. Whatever the bias of the author, the book remains a terrible testimony of the sufferings of this decade.
