Theodore Stephanides - new publications
Colenso Books (London) have sent me word of their publication of ‘Sweet-voiced Sappho’ a translation by Theodore Stephanides of the poems of Sappho and other Greek poets.
Colenso have undertaken to publish (or re-publish as the case may be) the life’s work of Stephanides whom many will remember as the eccentric polymath in the books and letters of Gerald Durrell and Lawrence Durrell.
I have already bought 'Autumn Gleanings' from Colenso through Amazon. I am now looking forward in particular to Stephanides' war memoirs. I have been trying to get hold of ‘Climax in Crete’ for some time but every copy I’ve managed to track down has cost an arm and a leg. So I’ve given up. Let’s hope Colenso can come up with an affordable edition. Good for them!
