The Age of Rage
“This house thrives only in anger that leaves no time for repentance. Those who have been banished for their crimes return to commit a new one.”
Walking in the footsteps of Irene Koppl – Step 1
Walking in the footsteps of my grandmother Irene Koppl, I begin the first chapter of my journey in Greece. Although she never set foot here during her lifetime, her experience of arriving alone in a foreign land echoes through my time in Veria. Over three months, I sought not only to lose myself but to rediscover her story — a story marked by displacement, resilience, and the courage to begin again. Among refugees, volunteers, and a camp filled with both hardship and hope, I began to understand the vulnerability she must have felt, and the strength she carried.
