Summary:

Dimitri, a handsome 21-year-old attracted to older women, sometimes sleeps with them for pocket money. But in this first of the three-time Greek National Book Award-winner's works to find an American publisher, insistent desire trumps calculated commerce. Dimitri encounters Koula, a mature married woman, sitting across from him one evening on an Athens subway car.
