“Our Town”, presented by Themis Rodamitis, welcomes Alexandros Adamopoulos.
The widely read author, whose books have circulated in many countries, speaks about his works, including The Twelve and One Lies, The No of Yes, The Possessed, The Semolina Boy, and others.
In the studio, he also reflects on his experience in key administrative positions at major cultural institutions in Greece — such as the Museum of Greek Folk Musical Instruments, the National Theatre, ERT, the Third Programme, the Art Theatre, and the Athens Festival — as well as on important engagements abroad.
Alexandros Adamopoulos talks about his relationships with significant personalities, his own Athens, and the unpredictable element hidden within the randomness of everyday life. He also refers to his favorite cities and to figures such as Christou, Hatzidakis, Pikionis, Castoriadis, Tsarouchis, and others.
The discussion touches upon the “art of walking,” which he practices, as well as on memory and the power of language.
