The Life of Sosat Silacay Tasos Yacalis

In this semi- autobiographical tale that spans every aspect of the protagonist' s life, Tasos Yacalis tells us the adventures of Sosat Silacay in his search for love. The slums of New York during the depression years were Sosat' s playground. A time when everyone was struggling to survive and yet a time when it was easier for people to feel more alive. Living life in the raw, from playing in the alleys amidst gangs and bullies to the eye-opening experiences as a US Marine, provided him with the first lessons of what life is all about and the important role love, or its absence, plays in it. After a successful career as a psychologist, Sosat has the courage to leave everything behind to return to his roots on the Greek island of Kos. It is on that earthly paradise where he realistically achieves what everyone dreams about.
