Summary
An old merchant looks back on his youth on Chios when the Greek War of Independence broke out. His memoir follows a young man who is no hero, only someone trying to save his family and his trade as war and massacre sweep through the Aegean. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur.
Written by Claude Opus 5.5, an AI assistant, from the text of the book.
