Poems

“Cavafi has all the characteristics of an extraordinary man of decadence – wise, ironic, hedonistic, charming, memory-impaired. He lives as indifferent, as courageous. He looks out of his window, lying in a soft armchair, and waits for the Barbarian to appear. He holds scrolls with delicately inscribed eulogies, is festively dressed, carefully painted, and waits. But the barbarians do not come, and he sighs in the night, quietly, and smiles wryly at the simplicity of his soul to hope.” Nikos Kazantzakis
