Maribor

By John Sakkis, Demosthenes Agrafiotis, Demosthenes Agraphiotes

Poetry. Winner of the 2011 Northern California Book Award for Poetry in Translation. Translated from the Greek by John Sakkis and Angelos Sakkis. Demosthenes Agrafiotis's MARIBOR is a book of thoughts, impressions, expressions and reflections from his travels to Hesperia (Western Europe) in the period 1980-90. The book is concerned with the constantly elusive identity of Europe as a geographic place, as a cultural gamble, as a historical problem, as a horizon for the future of humankind. "MARIBOR gives us both artifactof the ephemera of communication, institutions, poweras well as blueprint for imagining an 'alphabet of the future.' A master of the contemporary hermetic, Agrafiotis can bring to light in one stroke both the evanescence and endurance of the writing on the wall."Eleni Stecopoulos
