Meanwhile, local political bosses plot his assassination. Thugs are recruited to disrupt the rally. Rumors begin to spread. But the forces already set in motion are irresistible. Z is the story of a crime, a time, a place, and people transformed by events. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eZ was published in Greece in 1966, and banned there one year later.

His funeral became a political event; by the time the cortege reached Athens, 400,000 people were following the coffin in silence. In the nation's capital, the letter Z suddenly appeared on walls, sidewalks, posters--everywhere. Z stands for the Greek verb \u003ci\u003ezei\u003c\/i\u003e, \"he lives.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Seven Stories Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781609807122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.00w x 1.10d","brand":"Vassilis Vassilikos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43059856244917,"sku":"9781609807122","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_523ac077-fba8-4639-8121-9424cbea444c.jpg?v=1690299569","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/z-50th-anniversary-edition-9781609807122","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
