Join Henriette Lazaridis in person on Wednesday, April 24 at 7 PM at Odyssey Bookshop in South Hadley, Massachusetts, as she presents her highly anticipated new novel, Last Days in Plaka. This immersive and multifaceted story takes readers on a journey through the vibrant and contradictory city of Athens, where the ancient and modern collide, and the neighborhood of Plaka holds the secrets of its inhabitants.

Last Days in Plaka follows two women, Anna and Irini, whose lives intertwine in unexpected ways. Anna, a Greek-American searching for her roots, works at an Athens gallery by day and creates street art by night. Irini, an elderly widow, relies on the kindness of others. When the local priest brings them together, an unlikely friendship forms. As Anna delves into Irini's captivating stories of her past, she becomes consumed by her tales of a distant daughter and lost wealth.

Driven by a sense of urgency and the desire for revelation, Anna embarks on a perilous decision that uncovers Irini's web of lies and forces Anna to confront her own capacity for forgiveness. In Last Days in Plaka, Lazaridis explores themes of identity, belonging, and the passage of time.
