Synopsis

This anthology by Rigas Kappatos represents selections from all his published books of poetry. The inspiration comes from everything within the realm of feeling, space, time and knowledge: love, joy, sorrow, life, death, nature, politics, peoples, religion, Greek mythology, history, etc., are its source, and themes from all these subjects are represented in the poems. As a consistent lover of animals, Rigas Kappatos also includes poems about them and specifically about cats, in the form of an appendix at the end of the book. For a number of years the poet worked and lived on board ships of the Greek merchant marine as a sailor, an experience from which he is also inspired, from the life on board, sea ports and the nature of the sea itself, an element which also enriched his poetry with its changing moods and reality as part of the life at sea.
