Hold Fast the Mountain Pass

A Work of Historical Fiction about the Life and World of Nikos Kazantzakis

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book narrates Kazantzakis' life -- his poverty, his life in exile, his struggle as a writer groping for a "voice," and describes the conditions under which that voice brought forth the prolific range of work that included The Odyssey, Zorba the Greek, and the controversial Last Temptation of Christ.
