Τίνα: Η ιστορία μιας ευθυγράμμισης

We meet Tina on a Swedish train that stops suddenly in the middle of nowhere, and follow her to her home in Athens, where she is writing a book about the cinema of the Balkans, pulling remnants of her adolescence out of the drawers. She cancels her university lectures for 'a funeral', lies in her letters to her parents, makes love, faces a burglary, and avoids her children, who have come from Thessaloniki to save her. But can Tina be saved, and from what? A novel about how the spectacle industry makes suicide ridiculous, about a grave where a boy was buried while a girl never was, and about the trauma of social existence in a seemingly quiet life.
