Karyotakis Selected Poems: Life Is an Endless Night (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786188708204)

Life is an Endless Night is a dark poetry collection by K.G. Karyotakis, one of Greece's most haunting modern poets. Born in 1896 and ending his own life in 1928, Karyotakis wrote with piercing honesty about loneliness, despair, and the quiet burden of being.

In this English-translated selection, each poem is a mirror of existential struggle, a voice echoing through the shadows of love, grief, and society's hypocrisy.

Karyotakis's verses reveal a man both sensitive and unsparing, unafraid to expose the dark truths of life and art.

"You would be one more among the dead,

if the dead were not in peace..."

For readers who seek beauty in despair, meaning in melancholy, and the light in the deepest shadows, this collection invites you to wander through the eternal night of the soul...

Perfect for fans of Sylvia Plath, Charles Bukowski, and Edgar Allan Poe - a timeless exploration of existential poetry, melancholic modern verse, and Greek literary brilliance.
