Balkanika Prize 2015, Prix laure Bataillon 2013

This is a non-fiction book on Athens, where poverty is gaining place and making Athenians feel very differently from some years ago. The author is walking around the city and takes photographs of people who are living in conditions where dignity seems forgotten. One part of the book consists of a dialogue with an Athenian homeless whom Chryssopoulos met for some days and it also contains photos.

The inspiration came to the author when he saw a homeless  searching in a dustbin with a flashlight between his teeth.

Chryssopoulos continues his philosophical approach of being, tries to feel how a human can live without dignity, compares antique ruins and human ones and takes a look in the relation that exists between image and reality.
