Eduardo D. Faingold is associate professor of Spanish at the University of Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The Kalamata Diary: Greece, War, and Emigration provides a
fascinating view of the Greco-Italian War and German invasion of
Greece. Sotiria Salivaras's diary reproduces at length original
statements made by Greek leaders during that turbulent time and
reveals the hopes and anxieties of a nation at war. Eduardo
Faingold uses interviews and narrative to elucidate two different
but interrelated episodes in Greek history: the experience of world
war, occupation, and civil war in the 1940s and the immigration of
Greeks—like Salivaras—to Latin America.
