RITSOS, YANNIS — The Fourth Dimension

Princeton, NJ, Princeton University Press. 1993, First Thus. (ISBN: 0691024650) Original Wraps. Ill.: Trans Peter Green & Beverly Bardsley. Book, "In the dramatic monologues that make up The Fourth Dimension -e specially those based on the grim history of Mycenae and its royal protagonists - the celebrated modern Greek poet Yannis Ritsos presents a timeless poetic paradigm of the condition of Greece, past and present. The volume also contains a group of modern narratives, including the famous, and much-anthologized, "Moonlight Sonata." Ritsos, rightly, regarded the The Fourth Dimension as his finest achievement. It is now presented to English speaking readers for the first time in its entirety." 326p. notes. Fine.
