The Archeologist and Selected Sea Stories - by Andreas Karkavitsas (Paperback)

The Archeologist is a landmark selection of works by one of the greatest Greek writers of the 20th century, Andreas Karkavitsas.

This masterpiece is an allegory for the questions facing Greek nationalism at the turn of the century and a vision of Europe conceived on the precipice of World War I.

The book includes a selection of "sea tales" told by sailors, fishermen, and sponge-divers during Karkavitsas' travels in the Mediterranean, which are considered some of his greatest achievements.

The Archeologist is a must-read for anyone interested in Greek literature, national identity, and the complexities of European history.
