Paros. A journey into space and time
On July 26th 2008, George Pittas presented his book “Paros. A journey into space and time” at Lefkes Village Hotel The presentation was a small feast, since it started with traditional sounds of the islands performed by De La Paro, three musicians of Paros Niko Papadaki- lute, Niko Tsadani- tsabuna and Spiro Balio- violin and tubaki. The book was presented by the journalist Bilio Tsoukala and commented by the educator Eleni Skordili. This revised edition has made a point of nothing all of the cultural societies, local societies, active citizens and cultural foundations, who fight to support the cultural and environmental heritage of the island.
This edition also highlights the island’s cultural wealth. The quaint country paths, the monasteries, the churches, the country houses, the crops, the Folk museums and also the peoples activities at local customs and religious festivals, written in intimate detail.
One basic innovation has to do with the introduction of ten people of the island. Through ten small stories that record the greatest of Paros assets.
Pieces of the book read the president of Municipal Council Antonis Arkas, Mosxoula Kontostaylou, Bilio Tsoukala and Eleni Skordili. The night closed under the sounds of De La Paro, tasty food and good wine
