In 2009 Knopf published a new translation of Cavafys Complete Poems by the brilliant and awardwinning writer and scholar Daniel Mendelsohn. Now Mendelsohn has made a selection of the poets bestloved works for a Pocket Poets edition, including such favorites as "Waiting for the Barbarians," "Ithaca," and "The God Abandons Antony." Whether advising Odysseus as he returns home to Ithaca or portraying a doomed Marc Antony on the eve of his death, Cavafys poems make thehistoric profoundly and movingly personal. A towering figure of twentiethcentury poetry, Cavafy is a stellar addition to the Everyman Pocket Poets series.
