Summary: "Διηγήματα της ξενιτειάς" by Christos Christovasilis is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The work explores themes of nostalgia, longing for home, and the emotional struggles of those living in exile, particularly through the experiences of characters who are either in foreign lands or are dealing with loved ones who have left. The opening of the book introduces the character of κάκω η Μήτραινα, a mother who is deeply intertwined with the anticipation of her son's return from a long period of living abroad. Every year, on the eve of Saint John's Day, she prepares for his arrival, maintaining hope despite the passing years and the increasing despair of others around her. Her routine is marked by unwavering faith and an indomitable spirit, as she refuses to believe in the possibility of her son's demise, creating a poignant sense of longing that permeates her life. She waits by the roadside, dreaming of his return, highlighting the powerful bond between a mother and her child amid the difficulties of separation. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
