(P/B) KINDLED TERRACES

Παρουσίαση

Kindled Terraces, Don Schofield's cornucopia anthology of American poets in Greece, is living proof of the power of the philhellenic tradition - the magnetic tug it exerts on a generation of our finest poets, reminding them of the past, restoring them in the present, thanks to the light and landscape and eloquence of that enchanted country. (Robert Fagles translator of The Iliad and The Odyssey)

This is a necessary and a timely contribution to current conversations in and about poetry, bringing together a fascinating blend of voices, an unusual - but not unlikely - gathering of poets. Moreover, the subtle argument of the collection - favoring an efficacious return to the heart and heartland, the origins of our poetry - is manifestly compelling. (Scott Cairns author ofPMlokalia: New & Selected Poem)

In this anthology we find poets bearing the light of Greece where poetry has thrived for two millennia. They brilliantly describe the ineffable Hellenic Odyssey that was missing in America. This Odyssey has inspired poetic fantasy, rich in texture, sweet and sour in taste, real and surreal in form. The poets represented here interpret the Greek world with a voice full of vitality, light, extraordinary power, and fascinating metaphors. This is a journey into Greece we do not find in guides written for tourists. (Dino Siotis editor of MondoGreco)
