The Other Self

My novel The Other Self, published by Thermaicos / IANOS editions, Thessaloniki, Greece in June 2019 (original title in Greek, Το Άλλο Πρόσωπο), explores in a creative manner applications of visual anticipation and anticipatory assumptions in day life.

Through the parallel stories of the two heroines, the book walks us through the certainties we all have about our own “reality”, and discusses the ways we see, feel, learn and experience. The two main characters seek the ‘whys’ and ‘how’ of their emotions guided by the inner compass of their memory.
