Fey Folk is characteristic of Papadiamandiss work. Its characters
are quaint, simple-hearted folk living their humble lives in
accordance with centuries-old traditions and customs, delightfully
described by Papadiamandis with both reverence and humour. The
setting is the hinterland of his native island of Skiathos with its
intoxicating vegetation, its hillsides, springs and ravines, where
the belief in spirits and the supernatural is deeply rooted in the
consciousness of the otherwise God-fearing and devout inhabitants.
Generally recognized as one of the foremost Greek prose writers of
the modern period, Alexandros Papadiamandis holds a special place
in the history of modern Greek letters, but also in the heart of
the ordinary Greek reader.
