A lifer sentenced to 622 years? And the best years of his life, too! Just think how high the rents will be by the time he gets out! Because, of course, life expectancy is rising all the time...

In the darkest hours he is there, r...

If he'd lived in different times, he'd have been rowing in a galley or building pyramids in the desert. If he'd been a monkey, the other monkeys would have stolen his bananas. Yes, of course, it's our Lifer again, the eternal victim. He tries to make friends and they break his glasses. He escapes and they don't even need to look for him -he finds his own way back. And when he decides to go on hunger strike and rather die than eat, once again he's probably made the wrong decision: like the cook always says, "with prison grub one thing doesn't rule out the other." But don't w...

Πέρασαν πάνω από πέντε χρόνια από τα τέλη του 2011 όταν, σε πείσμα των δίσεκτων και για τον εκδοτικό χώρο καιρών, τολμήσαμε να ξεκινήσουμε μια νέα εκδοτική σειρά με τίτλο "Γαλλόφωνη Λογοτεχνία".

Love, kindness, compassion, altruism: he's got them all -and at very reasonable prices too! Well, it's Montecristo, the famous peddler in feelings and home truths.

And he's so good at it he makes our Lifer feel guilty about being innocent!
