An Andreas Karavis Companion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781550651324)

The life and work of Andreas Karavis constitute a rare phenomenon in the cultural life of contemporary Greece. A poet who was largely unknown until the late eighties, working indefatigably but in almost total obscurity from youth to later middle age, he suddenly finds himself in the public eye as a powerful but enigmatic presence. Yet, his life remains an almost impenetrable secret. Critical commentary and biographical background are leavened with a selection of letters and extracts from the notebooks of this enigmatic Greek poet. Included are never-before-published poems by Karavis.
