During the Greek-Italian conflict of World War II, Dr. Theodore Electris, newly married and idealistic, was called up to the Greek-Italian front in the remote mountains of Albania. Homesick, hungry and desperately missing his young wife, Chrysoula, he kept an intimate journal to preserve his experiences for her.
Translated by his daughter, Helen Electrie Lindsay, Electriss entries and letters come together inWritten on the Knee. Fully illustrated and accompanied by supporting reference material, the collection serves as both an authentic historical document of Greek involvement in WWII and a story of love, separation and family ties threatened and strengthened by war.
Often overlooked in the scope of WWII, Greeces six-month conflict with Mussolinis forces played a pivotal role in the wars outcome. The small countrys fierce resistance against the Italians delayed Hitlers move into the Soviet Union, which many historians believe turned the war in favor of the Allies.
From Dr. Electriss first entry to his lastWritten on the Knee captures the true story of love and war during a crucial time in modern history.
