Στον επίλογο του σημειώματός του, ο Χατζιδάκις αναφέρει: «Η εποχή της Μελισσάνθης τέλειωσε. Σήμερα ζω για πάντα τον χαμό της. Κι ο κόσμος μας δεν πάει να γίνει καλύτερος. Με όλα όμως αυτά, δε θέλω να δώσω ιστορικές διαστάσεις στη Μελισσάνθη και στην εποχή της. Επιθυμώ να καταγράψω μόνο, την προσωπική μου περιπέτεια και συμμετοχή στην πρόσφατη ιστορία του κόσμου, έτσι καθώς την έζησα μέσ’ από το σπίτι μου και μέσα από την πόλη που εξακολουθώ να ζω».
