An intimate portrait of Yanis Varoufakis’s political awakening, told through the history of his extraordinary family

Dramatic in scope and deep in feeling, Raise Your Soul traces three generations swept up in the whirlwind of history, across a century of occupation, civil war, Cold War fracture and economic crisis, from 1924 to the present.

At its heart are Eleni, Anna, Trisevgeni, Georgia and Danaë – the women who shaped the visionary economist most, and whose resilience and courage inspire us to resist the forces of authoritarianism that still haunt our world.

'Gripping and unforgettable. It reads like a thriller’ BRIAN ENO

‘Written with a historian’s grasp of events, an economist’s rationalisation of how things work and, most of all, a storyteller’s understanding of the human condition, this is not just Varoufakis’s story, but ours’ IRVINE WELSH

'Beautiful and inspiring, I couldn't put it down' ROSIE HOLT

'Fierce ... to sit with Varoufakis’s words is a gift' ESTHER ANATOLITIS
