The novel The Lace Tablecloth, written by Anastasia Liveriadis, was launched last week at the Hellenic Museum. Over 60 guests attended the launch that was presented by the Greek-Australian Cultural League of Melbourne in conjunction with the Hellenic Museum.
The Lace Tablecloth is a hymn to the freedom that can come about by dissociating ourselves from much of what we are taught as children, from reappraising our concept of reality, and from making certain life choices. It is also a tribute to the indomitable human spirit which can overcome unimaginable difficulties to enable one to grow, become productive, and embrace life with love and enthusiasm.
