While there is seeming incongruity, a closer examination of this work, informed by background knowledge of rural Greek culture, shows that Myrivilis takes an ethnographic approach to the life of his protagonist so that the choices that are dramatized should be understood within the context of the novel as powerful cultural expressions.
