Paperback. Condition: New. Bilingual. *Bilingual edition* New softcover in printed wraps. 8vo. (6 x 1.25 x 9 inches) Clean text free of marks or underlining. Includes an appendix, notes on poems, bibliographical note and an index of poems. 496 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. C. P. Cavafy (1863-1933) lived in relative obscurity in Alexandria, and a collected edition of his poems was not published until after his death. Now, however, he is regarded as the most important figure in twentieth-century Greek poetry, and his poems are considered among the most powerful in modern European literature. This revised bilingual edition of Collected Poems offers the reader the original Greek texts facing what are now recognized as the standard English translations of Cavafy's poetry. It is this translation that best captures the poet's mixture of formal and idiomatic language and that preserves the immediacy of his increasingly frank treatment of homosexual eroticism, his brilliant re-creation of history, and his astute political ironies. This new bilingual edition also features the notes of editor George Savidis and a new foreword by Robert Pinsky.
