Cavafy's Alexandria: Expanded Edition - Princeton Modern Greek Studies Expanded edition
Edmund Keeley
C P Cavafy, one of the greatest modern Greek poets, lived in Alexandria for all but a few of his seventy years. Alexandria became, for Cavafy, a central poetic metaphor and eventually a myth encompassing the entire Greek world. This work on Cavafy in English describes Cavafy's literary progress and aesthetic development in the making of that myth.
