SUMMARY:The Fumes of Mars: Book discussion with artist and writer Katerina Angelopoulou
DESCRIPTION:The Fumes of Mars: Book discussion with artist and writer Katerina Angelopoulou \nSaturday\, March 28\, 2026\n10:00 A.M. Los Angeles / 7:00 P.M. Greece\nVia Zoom \nRSVP Here \nThis discussion will be moderated by Professor Sharon Gerstel\, Director\, UCLA SNF Center for the Study of Hellenic Culture and Dr. Eirini Kotsovili\, Senior Lecturer\, Global Humanities\, Simon Fraser University. \nOne of the deadliest wildfires ever recorded took place on July 23\, 2018 in Mati\, just 30 km from the historical center of Athens. Writer and artist Katerina Angelopoulou survived the fire\, and her book\, The Fumes of Mars\, combines her photographs with personal testimonies from other survivors\, timelines\, maps\, and reports. With these materials\, Angelopoulou attempts to weave a collective narrative of the events to better understand the violent disconnect between her own experience and the “official” account of the disaster in which facts were concealed and victims held culpable. \nThe book opens with black and white photographs showing the aftermath of the fire alongside testimonies of the survivors. These are followed by Angelopoulou’s photographs\, taken as the disaster unfolded\,overlaid with her timeline of events. Collected evidence on the events follows\, including aerial maps\, topographical information\, lists of the victims with location and cause of death\, weather and aircraft reports\, CCTV and news coverage images\, information from the State Investigator report\, and information on the ongoing trial. The final images of the book are of Angelopoulou’s personal artifacts after the fire\, such as remnants of jewelry\, books\, and glasses. This assembled evidence is embedded with importance because after the fire\, the truth of the victims and their families was questioned multiple times—in the public narrative\, facts were concealed and re-produced with false arguments blaming residents and victims. \nKaterina Angelopoulou is a writer and artist based in Athens. The Fumes of Mars won the Format Festival’s Reviewers’ Choice Award 2022\, was selected for the COCA Project 2021\, shortlisted for the Belfast Dummy Award and Photo Festival in 2022\, and exhibited at LCC in London as part of the Common Ground Exhibition. Angelopoulou holds a B.Sc. in Mathematics & Theoretical Physics from Imperial College London\, a B.A. in Design for Performance from Central Saint Martins\, and an M.A. with Distinction in Photojournalism & Documentary Photography from London College of Communication. \nView additional images and purchase the book here. \nThis program is made possible thanks to support from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.

SUMMARY:West Coast Hellenic Book Club: The Jasmine Isle by Ioanna Karystiani
DESCRIPTION:Book cover design by: Emanuele Ragnisco \nWest Coast Hellenic Book Club: \nThe Jasmine Isle by Ioanna Karystiani\, trans. Michael Eleftheriou\n(Europa Editions\, 2006) \nDiscussion led by Professor Sharon Gerstel\, Director\, UCLA SNF Hellenic Center and Dr. Eirini Kotsovili\, Senior Lecturer\, Global Humanities at Simon Fraser University \nSaturday\, March 14\, 2026\n10 A.M. Los Angeles / 7 P.M. Greece\nVia Zoom \nRSVP Here \nFrom the Publisher: \nSet on the Greek island of Andros during the first half of the 20th century\, Karystiani’s first novel to be translated into English centers on Orsa Saltaferou\, a jovial teenager who falls in love with charming and sensual fisherman Spyros Maltambes. But when the time comes to settle down\, her imperious mother\, Mina\, decides that Spyros is not the man for her daughter and arranges a marriage to the richer Nikos Vatokouzis\, also a fisherman. Without a word of protest\, Orsa resigns herself to her fate-until she returns from her honeymoon to find her younger sister\, Mosca\, married to Spyros. Further intensifying emotions\, the sisters and their respective husbands must live with just a staircase between them. And because both men are sailors (as is the sisters’ father)\, they often travel for long stretches and leave the sisters-along with Mina and many other women on the island-to look after the homes\, raise their children and chat\, trying to gather news about their husbands and\, when it comes\, the war. With a talent for crafting graceful narration and poignant dialogue\, Karystiani presents a praiseworthy novel of a life caught between love and loss. \nAbout the Author: \nIoanna Karystiani was born on the island of Crete\, Greece\, in the town of Chania and now lives in Athens. Her literary debut came with the collection of short stories\, I kyria Kataki (Ms. Kataki). She has since written three novels\, all of which have been translated into several languages. She wrote the screenplay for The Brides\, directed by Pandelis Vulgaris and produced by Martin Scorsese\, and Estrella mi vida\, directed by Costa Gavras. She received the Greek state prize for literature and the Athenian Academy prize for her first novel\, and the Diavaso literature prize for her second. \nThis program is made possible thanks to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF). \nAvailable to borrow digitally for free on the Internet Archive at the link below: \nhttps://archive.org/details/jasmineisle0000kary/mode/2up \nIf you need help sourcing a copy of the book\, please email hellenic@humnet.ucla.edu.

SUMMARY:The Scapegoat by Sophia Nikolaidou
DESCRIPTION:Design by: Christopher King \nGefyra Book Club: \nThe Scapegoat by Sophia Nikolaidou\, trans. Karen Emmerich\n(Melville House\, 2015) \nDiscussion led by Professor Sharon Gerstel\, Director\, UCLA SNF Hellenic Center\nand Dr. Eirini Kotsovili\, Senior Lecturer\, Global Humanities at Simon Fraser University \nSaturday\, October 18\, 2025\n10 A.M. Los Angeles / 8 P.M. Greece\nVia Zoom \nRSVP Here \nFrom the Publisher:\nIn 1948\, the body of an American journalist is found floating in the bay off Thessaloniki. A small-time Greek journalist is tried and convicted for the murder… but when he’s released twelve years later\, he claims his confession was the result of torture. \nFlash forward to contemporary Greece\, where a rebellious young high school student is given an assignment for a school project: find the truth. And as he begrudgingly takes it on\, he begins to make a startling series of gripping discoveries–about history\, love\, and even his own family’s involvement. \nBased on the real story of famed CBS reporter George Polk—journalism’s prestigious Polk Awards were named after him—The Scapegoat is a sweeping saga that brings together the Greece of the post-World War II era with the Greece of today\, a country facing dangerous times once again. \nAs told by key players in the story—the dashing journalist’s Greek widow; the mother and sisters of the convicted man; the brutal Thessaloniki Chief of Police; a U.S. Foreign Office investigator\, and\, finally\, the modern-day student\, in the novel’s most stirring narration of all–The Scapegoat confronts questions of truth\, justice\, and sacrifice…and how the past is always with us. \nAbout the Author:\nSophia Nikolaidou was born in Thessaloniki in 1968. She teaches literature and creative writing and writes criticism for various newspapers\, including Ta Nea. She has published two collections of short stories and three novels\, all of which have been translated into eight languages. Her last novel\, Tonight We Have Friends\, won the 2011 Athens Prize for Literature\, and The Scapegoat was shortlisted for the 2012 Greek State Prize for Fiction. \nKaren Emmerich’s translations include Rien ne va plus by Margarita Karapanou\, Landscape with Dog and Other Stories by Ersi Sotiropoulos\, I’d Like by Amanda Michalopoulou\, and Poems (1945-1971) by Miltos Sachtouris. She received the 2013 PEN Award for Poetry in Translation for her translation\, with Edmund Keeley\, of Yannis Ritsos’ Diaries of Exile. \nThis program is made possible thanks to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF). \nLink to purchase book: \nhttps://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?isbn=1612193846&clickid=SNaQmzT01xyKTPw2A70VbTfEUksWhC2WzTQ7zI0&cm_mmc=aff-_-ir-_-64613-_-77416&ref=imprad64613&afn_sr=impact&ref_=aff_ir_64613_77416 \nhttps://livebrary.overdrive.com/media/1903986
