{"product_id":"the-quest","title":"The Quest - Nikos Themelis","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe novel encompasses the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th. Nikos, a young man, the son of a rich merchant who has eloped with the daughter of his business partner, leaves his Zagoria village in the Epirus region of north-west Greece in search of a better fate. His fascinating journey takes him first to Mytilene and then to Smyrna. In this cosmopolitan crossroads, a melting-pot of nationalities, cultures and beliefs, Nikos, who has now become Nikos-Efendi, makes a name for himself and becomes an influential member of society thanks to his wealth, acquaintances and family ties. In a world that is undergoing great changes, where new ideas are brewing, where new questions require new answers, our hero relentlessly continues his passionate quest: the fulfilment of his dreams. Those closest to him, whether in friendship, love, or thirst for power, narrate their common adventures against a background marked by the turbulent history of our modern times. This novel, an amazing panorama of Greece and the Balkans at the tail-end of one century and the first years of the next, is undoubtedly one of the greatest best-sellers in modern Greek literature. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e[Απόσπασμα από κείμενο του εκδότη]\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Κέδρος","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57868002558334,"sku":"the quest","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/7574\/2397\/files\/the-quest-6416847.jpg?v=1787158632","url":"https:\/\/diavazo.myshopify.com\/products\/the-quest","provider":"Diavazo Greek Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
