Illustrated with prints from a unique archive of glass and
celluloid negatives from the Aegean island of Anafi, this book
deals with the life of people who were sent into internal exile
under the Metaxas dictatorship (1936-1942). Like others before and
after, this regime used imprisonment, internal deportation and
exile as a means of containing and isolating a wide variety of
people who were thought to be 'public dangers'. Drawing on
published and unpublished memoirs and on firsthand accounts of
former exiles, it gives a vivid picture of a by no means unified
collection of people, facing a common set of problems on an island
at the borders of the Greek State. During the Occupation, the Anafi
exiles faced privation, hunger and finally the dissolution of the
commune. This is a human drama which will interest a wide range of
readers.
