C. P. Cavafy: Collected Poems
from Princeton University Press
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:

I am a big fan of Edmund Keeley's translations of Demotic Greek and Katherevousa. Having an armchair scholar's knowledge of the language I can appreciate the labor that has gone in to the refinement of the translations in the decades since the first edition. This volume reads very well in English,... more info

The Collected Poems of C. P. Cavafy: A New Translation
from W. W. Norton
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:

The second line from Constantine Cavafy's "Ithaka," as translated by Aliki Barnstone, perfectly expresses the feeling one has when reading her fine new translation of Cavafy's collected poems; one wants the journey to last, to be slow, thoughtful, recursive, if possible, neverending.

Before Time Could Change Them: The Complete Poems of Constantine P. Cavafy
from Harcourt

Customer Review:

Constantine P. Cavafy is one of the most intelligent and elloquent poets of this century, but remains barely known in American. Why is this? Probably because Cavafy is a man and his poems of lust and longing are addressed at other young men. I would never have discovered this amazing man if it were... more info
