Description

Before Lyricism by Helenē Vakalo is a collection of six book-length poems that form a larger whole. These poems were originally published as separate books, with Vakalo designing each one herself. This volume brings them together under a single cover, revealing the complex web of intertextual relations between them. By publishing these poems in English, Before Lyricism enriches our understanding not only of Vakalo's career but also of modern Greek poetry as a whole. The result is a unique insight into this key period in Vakalo's work and a valuable contribution to the study of contemporary Greek literature. This collection offers a fascinating glimpse into the development of Vakalo's poetic style and provides an opportunity for readers to engage with her work in a new way.
