And think of me when you are alone. The thought that you send me through the ether will find me in my solitude, wherever I am, and it will make me happy. Oh, do not forget me for a moment, not even for a moment... And I do not have a moment when you are not in my mind. You are to me the air I breathe and live...
Superior, ideal, refined is the love of eighteen-year-old and impressively beautiful Thalia for Anastasios, the acclaimed painter of Athens, the bohemian type with the carefully selected attire, who attracts attention in the salons of intellectuals and artists.
When he begins to respond to the girl’s romantic call, he will face the greatest dilemma of his life. At the threshold of a well-hidden secret, the letters exchanged by the two young lovers will seal their great love.
The Secret Engagements have the most beautiful love correspondence because it is real. As Xenopoulos wrote in his Autobiography in 1939, ten years after the first publication of the book, the central hero is the same. However, he never revealed the real name of Thalia, who, as became known to the broader reading public of that time, was the poet Theoni Drakopoulou, known as Myrtiotissa.
