Charleston, SC, July 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Although Angeliki Nakos was growing up on the streets of Philadelphia, she spent her summers exploring her family’s historical homeland of Greece. Her upbringing by first-generation immigrants was always a combination of two cultures, giving her a strong passion for learning, a hunger for adventure, and a pursuit of self-understanding. Throughout her childhood, Nakos never wanted for much—growing up in a middle-class home and taught by a loving family to lean on her faith. But life took some unexpected turns as she grew older.
The Queen of Linens (cleverly subtitled “A Greek Tragedy”) is Nakos’s memoir, sharing her real-life journey through uncharted domains, both physical and spiritual. Her story is a Greek tragedy in the classical sense, too—one where pride leads to falls and lessons are learned; one of rags to riches and riches to rags. She faces challenges to her ethics, and she confronts the failures and triumphs that come from both her own choices and the unpredictable whorl of the world around her.
Now, Nakos is a proud mother, and she speaks of her children as her greatest accomplishment. Her tumultuous path is a testament to the power of women’s resilience in the face of life’s storms—including those that start on the inside and work their way out into our lives. This book is sure to appeal to anyone who understands the adversity that often comes with ambition, and who needs a reminder that happiness can be achieved through commitment to walking the good path.
The Queen of Linens: A Greek Tragedy is available for purchase online at Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com.
