Photopoems
by George Douatzis
The photographs in this book are not the work of a photographer but of the poet George Douatzis. Through the poet’s eye images of the everyday acquire another dimension; the verses which accompany them create a lovely, human and, primarily, poetic result. English and Greek bilingual text. 226 colour photographs.
This book offers a visual-poetic journey with images that speak to the mind and the soul. Each page holds a surprise, a feast of pictures and poetry in which you want to lose yourself. A world of dreams, yet profoundly real. The photographs are not the work of a photographer but of the poet George Douatzis, whose photographic viewpoint reminds us that reality has very beautiful aspects, provided we are able to see them. Through the poet’s eye images of the everyday acquire another dimension. And his verses which accompany them create a lovely, human and, primarily, poetic result.
