Alexis Stamatis has been hailed as âone of the most gifted writers of his generationâ (Françoise Noiville, Le Monde) in both Greece and Europe. His work has not yet been published in America and thus has been mostly inacces sible to US readers. Amerikaniki Fouga (American Fugue), published in 2006, is Alexis Stamatisâ most recent work.
This novel continues to examine the basic themes that are persistent in all of Stamatisâ works of fiction: an all-consuming past, the flight to escape oneâs personal demons, and, most importantly, the search for personal identity that is ultimately revealed only through what is unknown to the self. The treatment of these themes is also characteristic of the authorâs other novelsâtravel narrative on the surface, mystery or thriller with an existential dimension at another level, but ultimately a quest for self-discovery and personal redemption. American Fugue is one of the first books supported by the National Endowment for the Arts International Literature Awards program.
