Memas Kolaitis is the only translator of Cavafy who knew the poet well; his translation reflects this unique perspective. It is near to the original in texture and play on words, and his rhythms approximate those of the poet. First published in 1989, this is an accessible paperback edition of the original complete translation of Cavafy's works. "[the translation] is spirited, intensely loyal to Cavafy, an act of homage and pleasure too; it brings the reader more close in some respects to his poetry than other translators have done." -The Times Literary Supplement
