| Summary |
"Η νοσταλγός" by Alexandros Papadiamantes is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the emotional journey of a young woman named Λιαλιώ (Lialió), who experiences deep nostalgia for her homeland while facing the trials of her married life. The novel captures her longing for her roots and the tension between her desires and her current circumstances. At the start of the narrative, a moonlit night sets the scene near a harbor where Λιαλιώ expresses a wish to take a boat out to sea, longing to see the distant mountains that symbolize her home. Accompanied by a young man named Μαθιός (Mathios), they embark on a whimsical boat ride, allowing hopes and fears to intermingle. Λιαλιώ's nostalgia for her homeland unfolds as she reflects on her life with her husband, whom she feels disconnected from. This opening portion introduces themes of longing, love, and the complexities of relationships, setting the stage for deeper explorations of identity and belonging.
