📚📚On the occasion of the publication of her first short story collection in Greek "The ones that stayed behind" (Εκδόσεις Πόλις, 2024), speculative fiction writer Atalanti Evripidou spoke to Reading Greece about the book, heavily inspired by Greek history and folklore, and the way speculative fiction helps us reimagine reality.

"Reimagining reality is what writers do best, particularly writers of speculative fiction: we speculate. We look at what is and consider what could be. I’ve always been of the opinion that what sets artists apart is that we’re able to see the wounds in the world and we’re filled with a deep need to heal them. We do that by sharing our vision of the reality, hoping that, if enough readers get it, we could actually change the world. Literature isn’t simply the telling of stories to achieve aesthetic pleasure. It is also an act of defiance and a challenge. An invitation, if you will, to consider and work towards a different reality – a better reality".
