The masterpiece of Alexandros Papadiamantis, a precious gem of Greek prose, for the first time in the modern Greek language, mesa from Project Psycharis!
Fragogiannou, a woman who has suffered maternal abuse and paternal injustice due to her gender, family oppression and the exhausting offering of her services to her parents, husband, children and grandchildren due to social conditions, reaches the limits of paranoia. Under the burden of unbearable pressure, she believes that newborn girls from poor families are only a burden to their families and will only face suffering and pain throughout their lives. He concludes that it is better for them not to come to life, but even if they do, that it is better for everyone not to live.
She decides to take the burden of sin on her shoulders and she, whenever she can, end their lives with her own hands. Unable to get rid of the insane drive that takes over her, she continues to commit crimes and is faced with the human law. Hunted by everyone, she tries to find refuge in a hermitage, confess her sins and ask God for forgiveness. When she realizes that she can no longer reach her final destination, she prefers to end her life, with the certainty that God's judgment, whatever it may be, will be more just than the judgment of men.
