Wonderful biography
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This biography of Cavafy is very informative and interesting. It presents the poet's life in a vivid and concise way, without burdening the reader with too much unnecessary information. It's comparable to Costas Montis' great autobiographical novel Afentis Batistas in the sense that they both talk about the lives of two remarkable Greek poets of the 20th century, Cavafy and Montis, very similar in their technique and style. I have also been reading Seferis' biography, which is interesting but a little too long and detailed.
