Genre


Dimitris Lyacos (Greek: Δημήτρης Λυάκος) is a Greek writer best known for the internationally acclaimed Poena Damni trilogy and its prequel Until the Victim Becomes our Own. His genre-defying work interweaves prose, poetry, and drama with themes from philosophy, religion, ritual, and literary tradition, forming a complex narrative rooted in the Western Canon. Lyacos's characters are typically isolated, existential figures navigating dystopian or metaphysical landscapes, reflecting motifs such as the scapegoat, exile, redemption, and the return of the dead.
The trilogy, written over three decades, includes Z213: Exit, With the People from the Bridge, and The First Death, and has been interpreted as post-tragic and allegorical, blending Christ

Quotes by Dimitris Lyacos  (?)

“(...) a course laid between the seed and the snare
marks of venerable syringes ordered
to excite the awareness of Transcendence
first and last harbour the disinfecting of exile
on the bridge no one, only me,
searching for approaches and testing traitor neurons
grading thoughts repenting in an incomprehensible tongue
and again attempting to show the splash-down of a world
which moves up and down within the walls of experience
a tragedy which travels unruffled
hell without sinners without return (...)”
Dimitris Lyacos, The First Death

“[...]your own are burning and your memories and you don't want to leave them. Everything will burn to the end, you suffer, but nobody is punishing you, they are just setting your soul free. Don't be afraid because while you fear death they will rend your soul like demons. Only calm down and you will see the angels who are setting you free and then you will be free.”
Dimitris Lyacos, Z213: EXIT

“And when you can no longer remember, just meaningless things here and there and you can't. But still try even then, as the twilight sets in, stand and look at the past, walk again along the corridors where your eyes used to wander, attentive ghosts, open the boxes, think of the other side of the wall. Sit at the side of the road and see yourself pass. See the web, see how the passages of the maze all lead again to the same point which does not exactly coincide with the exit.”
Dimitris Lyacos, Z213: EXIT
