Once upon a time in a dark and boring drawer with socks, a green radiance turned everything upside down. A green sock with holes in it and without its pair met a red ballet shoe. Their hearts spoke intensely to each other. They talked about their loneliness, about their differences compared to their surroundings; they drew out their misfortune with words and managed to take it out of their lives. They threw sadness away, wore their brightest smile, bathed in their most intense glow and set out for a long voyage. Their story reached the distant planet of Charma, where it taught about life “to love deeply, share with justice, care and judge using the heart”.
The book is bilingual (Greek & English)
