• What is happening with "The Great Love"? 
• What is the reason for its remarkable endurance and influence over the years? 
• How is it possible for it to be a constant and unparalleled reference point in Greek music creation in the 20th century? 
• What is the explanation for the fact that young people who discover its power and charm continue to multiply instead of diminishing? 

This book will attempt to provide answers to such - and many more - questions. To do so, it will try to "examine" the work in relation to Manos Hatzidakis' overall musical output, and also to place it in the actual time it was created.
