Constantine P. Cavafy - Poems
Libros Libertad, 2008
Translations, like everything else, wear out over time, as language, and those who read or use it, change. With a poet like Cavafy, who was so precisely tuned to the idiom of his peers, it is even more important to update the English versions of his poems frequently, so that they have the same immediate resonance with the times as the originals had with their time.

C.P. Cavafy (Konstantinos Petrou Kavafis) is one of the most important Greek poets since antiquity.
