Five Days at Memorial meets Into the Raging Sea with this harrowing and moving true story of a devastating shipwreck during the biggest refugee crisis since World War II.

On October 28, 2015, a boat meant for a few dozen people capsized off the coast of the Greek Island of Lesvos, spilling hundreds of refugees into the Aegean Sea. The resulting loss of life, the largest amount in a single day during the current refugee crisis, brought this ongoing emergency into sharp, international focus.

Now, after nearly a decade of research and investigation, reporter Jeanne Carstensen effortlessly recounts the twenty-four hours during which the event unfolded, unpacking every complicated inch of this global crisis. Featuring firsthand accounts from the desperate refugees, the smugglers who risked their lives, and the heroic islanders who did their best to help, even as their government and the European Union failed to act, A Greek Tragedy is an unforgettable and necessary testament of our times.
