"Throughout my life, I went along with Greece. Is this drama? Drama me too. It is impossible for a storm to break out in the country and not find myself in the center of it."
Dido Sotiriou
In the thick of successive crises I suddenly felt the strong need to breathe some fresh air, to be optimistic. So I decided that the time had come to revive my idol, Dido Sotiriou. It is unfair that the older people slowly forget her and the younger people completely ignore her. There was no other like this woman-warrior of good who crossed the entire 20th century, was at the center of every Greek tragedy (from the Asia Minor Catastrophe to the junta) and managed to trample all the ruins wearing her eternal smile, red beret, necklace and perfume. I immediately started the research (on the occasion of which I finally inspired the book Couples who wrote the history of Greece) and fortunately, because in the meantime Alki Zei and Nikos Belogiannis, the only survivors who knew her from the good and the reverse.
I hope I have written a completely hybrid biography with the characteristic title I Dreamed of Dido. Because I really dreamed of her fully alive, tireless and laughing, as she always was, telling me her life that was wildly improbable!
