There is a story going around and no one knows if it’s true. They say a guy was traveling from Kalamata to Sparta with a colleague. Throughout the journey, every few kilometers, he would throw a pen out the window shouting: "LIANTINIS! ANSWER US!" - "LIANTINIS! IF YOU CAN HEAR US, GIVE A SIGN!" They say that by the time he passed Mystras, he had scattered fifteen pens along the road. The strange thing is that, at the end of the trip, the glove compartment was full of Bic pens again. Since then, every time I find a Bic on the car floor, I look up — you never know.

If I were told to keep only one book until the end of my life, it would definitely be this one. Deeply liberating, true, Greek, just as the great Greek Teacher D. Liantinis was.

The teacher that we should have had and miss from our schools, our homes, and the municipality. Let it enter with this wonderful book in the libraries of our minds! A book that is worth studying many times!

Let me be the heretic of the comments then...
I didn't like at all the materialistic spirit that is pervasive in his book. Also, his pompous and bombastic speech tires me a lot and seems like he's trying to show off his knowledge. The Spartan, although he himself is a Spartan, is completely unknown. A left-wing university professor, just like the overwhelming majority anyway. I wonder how he is considered so important. I find him very "little" as a Greek.

It is by far my favorite book in my library. I have read it twice and I can't wait to read it again.

The radiance of the philosophical thought of the Greek teacher. By far the most important modern Greek book. Buy it immediately. Read it again and again, it is very difficult. You will need to delve into the Liantini asterism to understand it. But when you manage to do it, you will have it at your fingertips.

Excellent book, written by the unforgettable and distinguished Dimitris Liantinis.... He who emerged from Plato's "cave".
