Notes

  • Author's note : Though of weak faith, I believe in forces and powers
    Who crowd every inch of the air.
    They observe us - is it possible that no one sees us?
    Czeslaw Milosz

    'The follow-up to the international bestselling The Monkey’s Mask, Dorothy Porter’s Crete is an astonishing collection that traverses Greek myth and Russian poets, the memory of cigarettes and the wild abandon of love.

    'Crete is a heady mix of dark humour, archaeology, breathtaking eroticism, risk-taking and effortless economy. It is a book by a writer at the peak of her highly original powers.

    'This collection includes 81 poems in six cycles'.
