In this book, Yannis Kiourtsakis recalls an intellectual journey of half a century and wonders: How a bourgeois child, graduating from the university that Europe was for him, felt the need to study at the humble school of Karagiozis! And how many new things he learned there! How in the wrecked official Greece, which brought the junta of 1967, a living popular culture always breathed. How the group co-creation of the shadow theater by the old puppeteers and their audience gave birth to a spontaneous cultural democracy. How all the folk theaters are rooted in the symbolic language of the carnivalesque "upside-down world". How a centuries-old and multinational tradition was transformed into a genuine modern Greek creation. The most paradoxical: how the protean, ambiguous, pluralistic figure of Karagiozis led him to the art of the novel.
