This book presents more than nine plays by the author, from Χρυσόμυγα [Mayfly] (1994-95) to Νιζίνσκι – Η προφητεία της φωτιάς [Nijinsky ― the Prophecy of Fire] (2019).  They are dense in symbolism, expressed through concise language. Characters are known from History, prominent in the Aristotelian sense and highlighted in Impressionistic depictions. Christophis is “a restless soul”, as Walt Whitman would have said, and simultaneously a craftsman of discourse, focused on the theatre and, thus, its dimension of catharsis.
