Description:
Berkeley CA: Frog Ltd., 1998 Book. New. Hardcover. 1st.US Edition.. 'While much has been written about the Nazi atrocities visited on various locales and peoples, the murders committed at Kalavryta, Greece, have never been so poignantly described before now. In JUST ANOTHER MAN, Andy Varlow shares his eyewitness account of the crime that cost him his father, his neighbors, and his community. According to the author's preface, some of the action in the novel is fictional, but the slaughter of innocent people, the friendships depicted, and his deep attachment to his wife, are true. .In 1998 a statue was erected in the Kalavryta schoolyard to commemorate the tragedy there. It depicts a grieving woman and her children dragging the body of her loved one from the place of execution to the cemetary for burial. The school building has been designated a Greek National Museum. Proceeds from the sale of JUST ANOTHER MAN: A Story of the Nazi Massacre of Kalavryta, will be donated to this museum." 337p..

New York: Liveright, 1973 Book. Illus. by Trans. Jacqueline Lapidus. Fine. Soft cover. First Pbk.Ed... "At the height of the Greek Civil War,a lost nationalist army patrol seeks refuge in Doliani, a small village in the rugged Macedonian mountains, decimated by an endless stream of invading armies - Bulgarians,Italians,Germans, and finally their fellow Greeks. (it) is a pentrating indictment of the current regime in Greece as well,for many of those now in power appear in the novel. "in 1966, while embroiled in a political trial, Fakinos dramatically proved existence of a 'generals' plot' to establish a Greek military dictatorship by force. When the predicted coup d'etat occurred on April 21, 1967, he fled Greece with the unfinished manuscript of this book".
