Nanos Valaoritis

    Nanos Valaoritis staat bekend om zijn speelse en vaak absurde proza dat de grenzen van realiteit en taal uitdaagt. Zijn werken duiken in de donkerdere aspecten van de menselijke psyche en verkennen regelmatig thema's als vervreemding, herinnering en de zoektocht naar identiteit in de moderne wereld. Valaoritis' kenmerkende stijl wordt gekenmerkt door scherpe humor, onverwachte wendingen en een diepgaand begrip van de menselijke natuur, wat hem tot een onmiskenbare stem in de literatuur maakt.

    • Black & White Edition. This is the first English translation of Marie Wilson & Nanos Valaoritis' "Terre de diamant," which first appeared in French in 1958. Marie Wilson, an American surrealist, was an active participant in the Paris surrealist group in the 1950's. This book, the only book Marie herself has published, is a supreme document of poetic evidence, infused by her collaboration with the Greek poet Nanos Valaoritis. Marie was inspired to create a series of sixteen lithographs, and Nanos prepared the sixteen parallel texts that accompany them. Marie and Nanos subsequently married in 1960. They live today in Athens, Greece.
