Infos

Magic between the Elbe and Speicherstadt is a haunting collection of mystical, psychological and deeply atmospheric short stories - all set in Hamburg, the city of fog, memory and restless tides.Between the red-brick labyrinth of the Speicherstadt and the silver gleam of the modern Elbe bridges unfold tales where the supernatural meets the human, and where every shadow holds a story waiting to be told.Ghosts whisper through the harbor tunnels, time travellers drift through the river's currents, artists are devoured by their own obsessions - and the boundary between reality and illusion becomes beautifully, perilously thin.Each story stands on its own, yet together they form a mosaic of Hamburg's soul - a meditation on longing, guilt, passion and redemption, told with the rhythm of the tides and the melancholy of the North.Blending elements of Gothic fiction, magical realism and Hanseatic legend, Coulouris writes in the spirit of Poe and E.T.A. Hoffmann, but with a distinctly modern voice and a heart anchored in the port of Hamburg.Step inside the fog.Here, the past is never gone - it only changes shape.Step into the mist of Hamburg - a city where shadows remember, rivers whisper, and the line between reality and legend fades away.Magic between the Elbe and Speicherstadt invites you into haunting tales of passion, guilt and redemption beneath the glow of the Hanseatic lights.

Autor

Christos Coulouris – The Chronicler of Hidden Magic between Hamburg and the Greek Mysteries Christos Coulouris is no ordinary storyteller – he is an explorer of hidden worlds, a seeker moving between light and shadow, between the fogs of Hamburg and the sunlit shores of the Mediterranean. With profound knowledge of myth, history, and religion, he weaves together the alchemical heritage of Europe with the ancient mysteries of Greece. This unique perspective allows him to intertwine the secret tales of his chosen home, Hamburg, with the timeless legends of his Greek origins – creating a literary bridge between two worlds of wonder. His fascination with the unseen was born from years of study and exploration: nocturnal wanderings through the labyrinth of the Speicherstadt, conversations with antiquarians and storytellers, and the examination of forgotten manuscripts and esoteric symbols. Through these journeys, he has uncovered the hidden sigils of Hamburg and the sacred echoes of the Aegean. With a delicate pen for the mystical and a deep understanding of both myth and magic, Coulouris guides his readers into a realm where harbor and Hades, Hanseatic trade and Helios, history and legend merge into one. His books invite readers to rediscover the familiar – and to believe that magic never truly disappears. It merely changes its place.
