"The Perfect Order" is the first extensive selection of Nasos Vayenas' poems to appear in English. Spanning thirty-six years from 1974 to 2010, it covers every phase of his long and varied writing career - from the first registrations of his poetic voice, then as a leading member of the 'Generation of the Seventies', to his latest series of deeply felt, witty and urbane sonnets in honour of writers whom he loves, including Byron, Borges, Eliot and Cavafy. Also included are samples of his theoretical and critical writings, which provide both a foil and a context to his poems.
