Markaris reading Thursdays at 3pm in May and June

Join students, faculty, and friends of the Ohio State Modern Greek Program for weekly reading in Greek, with discussion mostly in English (translation is supplied), of a novel by Petros Markaris that has been translated into many languages. Advanced students of Greek will enjoy reading a contemporary vernacular Greek text that is also an entertaining murder mystery in the tradition of Yannis Maris, but with a topical edge, illuminating the ongoing financial crisis affecting Greece and much of the world. Meetings normally last for about an hour and are led by OSU Modern Greek major Yanni Patitsas ’23.
