It is Athens in the late autumn of 1973 and the sweltering heat of the inner city Summer is replaced by cool ,overcast days. The Greek dictatorship is slowly starting to crumble. In the working class area of Omonia a son of The Papadopoulos family joins a protest at the Athens Polytechnic while the daily buzz and excitement of city life continues around .Uptown under the watchful eye of the godess Athena,and a world away from down town Omonia ,the residents of the affluent district of Kolonaki,and those who aspire to live there, strive to find validation to their lives amid its steep, winding streets at the foot of the imposing , Lycabettus Hill.The book follows their joys , heartaches ,politics and music on a fifty year journey. As the years pass, oblivious to its children, the ancient city changes and moves in an altogether different direction: a wandering tale of latter day Athens and its peoples.
