Haven't read this one. I was going to, but I will release it instead as it's perfect for the "Demek Release Challenge" with the cinema theme. This is a second hand copy.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

I left the book outside the open-air cinema at 12:45 today. For the Demek Release Challenge.

Το βιβλίο είναι μέσα στην κεραμιδομπορδοκόκκινη υδρορροή στα Αριστερά πάνω από την είσοδο του σινεμά. Πάτε να το πιάσετε βρε, αν βρέξει θα μουλιασει :) Το εκρυψα εκεί γιατί μέσα είχε εργάτες που κάτι κανανε. Άντε, είναι ωραία στο Θησειο σήμερα :)

After work, I had some free time (yes, for the first time since I got back to work I had free time for myself before I go home to my baby girl!!!) So I thought about catching that book, if it had not disappeared from the spot apapsa had left it.

When I saw it, at first I thought it looked rather like a bookmark -and I thought that not much was left from the poor book- but when I took it (it was fortunately not too high for me) it was great that it was not severely damaged by the rain yesterday. I took it with me at an open-air cafe, viewing the Acropolis, and had some cofee and food. I spent a really delightfull afternoon in the company of this book and the little rude sparrows, who tried to eat crisps i left near and on the book (see photo) :-)

I started reading it later in the metro and during a physiotherapy session (:-() Its poetic language is quite interesting. The Greek hero, Athos, is a surprise, lets see after the first pages what happens...

After I finish the book I will give it a face-lift and help it continue its journey!

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

This book is going to travel to Thessaloniki along with many others for the 5th Greek BookCrossing Convention! It is going to be caught and read by many people who themselves will let it travel all over the world! Of course, it will first have a great time during the Convention, from 21st to 24th of May with the 100+ participants! If you were lucky enough to find this book you can be part of the fun too! Hooray!

Οoops! I finally forgot to take it with me to Thessaloniki. It wasn't meant to travel there, anyway, some other kind of fate expects this book!

edit August 2010: Finally I finished the book before I released it and my impressions were quite good, although I found the second part somewhat weak, starting a new stry with a hero similar to the previous of the 1st part...

I left the book last Monday on a book stack on a shelf (*the top book was the Bible) to the right as you enter the entrance hall of the hotel in the centre of the city.
