More DescriptionThe temporal travels through Constantinople in 1453, Constantinople in 1923, and Newfoundland and Labrador in 2017, follow a certain recurrence in Orthodox spirituality. The fantastic escape of a priest named Pantagathus, in 1453 Constantinople; the travels of Panagiotis in the evacuation of Constantinople in 1923; and the pursuits of Pete Tsiminis, in 2017¿ravel the macrocosm of jest and the senescence of Orthodox heritage together, in a piquant and veritable story. There has not been a story of this type told, with the structural contiguity and with the stark honesty. Otus in Betulceæ does depict a semblance in the disparaged time periods, and the novel does accentuate the unseemliness of time.
