Μy dearest Urania

By Natassa Georgoulia

Year 1887. Female migration from the Cyclades to the wealthy urban centers of Hellenism is at its peak. Urania, at her sixteen, leaves her island, Tinos, to work for a wealthy Greek family in Constantinople. Against the backdrop of 19th-century Istanbul and the myths surrounding the sultans' harems, the heroine is educated, comes of age, and falls in love. She experiences a passionate but hopeless affair and, when she becomes pregnant, makes the brave decision to return to her homeland and rebuild her life from scratch.
As the years go by, the fruit of her love, little Josephina, longs to learn the truth about her real father. But Urania is afraid to reveal her secret. In the end, an unbelievable twist of fate will show mother and daughter that life often holds surprises beyond anything we dare to imagine...
