It's Greek based on the alphabet

Do you know what letter that first O is? I can't find it


Archivist Reads (archivist___reads) | 10 comments I asked my English teacher who knows a bit of greek and he said that the title is ANEPHORA (the letters in all caps), psykhograpiko mythistorima (the two words below it).
ANEPHORA = going uphill
psykhographiko mythistorima = a psychographic novel


Archivist Reads (archivist___reads) | 10 comments This is the wikipedia definition for psychographics, I assume a psychographic novel would have something to do with it.

Psychographics is a qualitative methodology used to describe traits of humans on psychological attributes.[1] Psychographics have been applied to the study of personality, values, opinions, attitudes, interests, and lifestyles.[2] Because this area of research focuses on activities, interests, and opinions, psychographic factors are sometimes abbreviated to 'AIO variables'.

Psychographics are applied to the study of cognitive attributes such as attitudes, interests, opinions, and belief, as well as the study of overt behavior (e.g., activities).

The "O" is called a phi (Φ), it's pronounced like f in five in modern greek (it used to be pronounced like p in pot in ancient greek)


Archivist Reads (archivist___reads) | 10 comments FOUND IT!
It's written by Dalípis Dimítris (Δαλίπης Δημήτρης)
The full title in Greek is:

Ανηφόρα
Ψυχογραφικό μυθιστόρημα

In English:


Uphill
Psychographic novel

Here's a link to a site where you can buy a used copy of the book (not sure if it's still available):
