Produktbeschreibung

New 2023 Edition First edition 2012 The tiller of the times is Augerinos Andreou's sixth of eight Greek poetry collections. Written in modern Greek in 2006, it is the first to be translated into English. What is the connection between ancient Greek culture, folk lore, history and the long-suffering Greek citizen of the day? The poet, a respected lawyer in the EU state of Greece, opens a window for the reader into his inner world. He unfolds his ethics and aesthetics by capturing moments in time both past and present. Poignant and evocative, his poetry reflects life in the countryside as well as urban living: the rich tapestry of life in Greece at the beginning of the third millenium. Andreou's poetry collections are: 'Reversals,' 'Double gate,' 'Stone and light,' 'After the storm,' Tracing the times,' The tiller of the times,' Seventh writ,' and 'Red stone.'

Dr M. Sidiropoulou from Preface, 'The tiller of the times' (A Andreou 2nd ed. 2023).Print version
