Noon - Hardcover

by Efthimis Filippou (Author), Mnp (Illustrator), Kyriacos Karseras (Translator)

One half of the duo that co-wrote (with Yorgos Lanthimos) such cinematic masterpieces as Dogtooth, The Lobster, and Kinds of Kindness, Efthimis Filippou is one of the few contemporary writers whose new work is greeted by genuine excitement and renowned for producing texts that are witty, disquieting, and profoundly humane. NOON is a collection of six works from Filippou's non-filmic oeuvre. First presented between 2011 and 2021, these performance texts take various forms: from plays, flash fictions, epistolary narratives, and short stories, all the way to monologues, song lyrics, and short scenes.
