Constantine P. Cavafy,Avi Sharon: The Selected Poems of Cavafy

The Selected Poems of Cavafy


Description

C. P. Cavafy is one of the most singular and poignant voices of twentieth-century European poetry, conjuring a magical interior world through lyrical evocations of remembered passions, imagined monologues and dramatic retellings of his native Alexandria's ancient past. Figures from antiquity speak with telling interruptions from the author in such poems as 'Anna Comnena' and 'You did not understand', while precise moments of history are seen with a sense of foreboding, as in 'Ides of March', 'The God Abandoning Antony' and 'Nero's Deadline'. And in poems that draw on his own life and surroundings, Cavafy recalls illicit trysts or glimpses of beautiful young men in 'One Night', 'I have gazed so much' and 'The Cafe Entrance', and creates exquisite miniatures of everyday life in 'An Old Man' and 'Of the Shop'. Winner of the prestigious Harold Morton Landon Translation Award 2009

The term Brutalism is used to describe a form of architecture that appeared, mainly in Europe, from around 1945 - 1975. Uncompromisingly modern, this trend in architecture was both striking and arresting and, perhaps like no other style before or since, aroused extremes of emotion and debate. Some regarded Brutalist buildings as monstrous soulless structures of concrete, steel and glass, whereas others saw the genre as a logical progression, having its own grace and balance. The festive season is when most of us need a bit of help in the kitchen. So many parties to prepare for, not to mention the big day itself, when family and friends converge for the Christmas feast. This is where James Ramsden's 'do-ahead' approach to cooking comes into its own, allowing the cook to enjoy being with their guests instead of stuck in the kitchen. With practical advice for making delicious and creative festive food well in advance, from party canapes, The Selected Poems of Cavafy pdf to Christmas lunch with all the trimmings, even drinks and edible gifts, ideas for scaling up, menu planning and storage. Do-Ahead Christmas is the book that no foodie can do without.
