Greece, Senses & Sensitivity, coffee table book



I keep forgetting to mention this fine photographic book, "Greece, Senses & Sensitivity, a photographic journey alongside poets and travellers". It was published by Travel Times Publishing, Athens, 2007.


Apart from the work of some outstanding photographers,  there are many well-chosen literary quotations from poets and writers like Homer, Sappho, Byron, Lear, Cavafy, Seferis, Ritsos, Palamas, Mavilis, Marlowe, Dyden, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Keats, Napier, Spenser, Elytis, Yeats, Shelley, Pope, Tennyson, Aeschylus, Sophocles, Callimachus, Pausanius, Plato, Peter Levi, Patrick Leigh Fermor, Francis King, etc.

I still feel quite chuffed that my own writing is also represented in such illustrious company, with three separate quotations!
