The journey of an American philhellene in the world of the Greek Revolution of 1821 and his obsessive commitment to the struggle of the peoples against absolutism provide the opportunity to unfold five years of war and dreams, from the uprising of Macedonia to the mountains of Aspropotamos, of Roumeli, and from there to the besieged Messolonghi.
"The Nightingale Pie" is a novel of a great adventure, where we encounter Nikolaos Papafis, Kasomoulis, chieftains of Roumeli and Olympus, Byron, and even the Anonymous, the author of "Greek Nomarchy."
It is a book focused on the struggle of humanity for freedom and self-determination, but more so on the warm cocoon of love, which is the path and the springboard to another freedom, the existential one.
All of this happens in the paths of great journeys, as human fate, tied hand and foot to the central mast, maps with its gaze the extremities of the ocean.
