Passage of No Return

Passage of No Return is based on the author’s own story, cleverly written as a piece of fiction. After her mother’s death, Maria Velizanos finds a box of old photos that evoke vivid memories of people and events in her past, giving the reader an insight into her struggle to break with the traditions of her cultural heritage, her ambition to become an artist and the impact that her mental instability has on her marriage.
It is an immersive and emotive portrayal of the fragility of the human condition and our complex relationships. Memorable characters are vividly drawn and include a relentless Greek chorus that passes judgement and won’t hold its tongue.
