"...Schofield is no gauzy describer of Greek nature, its sounds and smells, the fresh vegetables and fruit that he eats, the look of light on the Aegean at different times of day. [He] takes pleasure in daily activities. He embraces physical challenges."
--Open Letters Review

More from the Serres Festival

What a wonderful two days of poetry, music and dance at the Third International Serres Poetry Festival. Warm thanks to Tryantafillos Kotopoulos, Isidora Malama and the many others who put on the events at the spacious Kronio Theater and in the warm blue light of the Zinzirli Mosque.

Here's the November issue of Weekly Hubris (posting it again because I had trouble posting it earlier). Enjoy! weeklyhubris.com?fbclid=IwY2x...

I'm delighted to be participating tomorrow and Saturday in the 3rd International Poetry Festival of Serres, Greece. This year the festival is honoring the centenary of Mikis Theodorakis' birth.

Better yet, on his tombstone!

Sure can relate to this.

A pleasure hearing Thanos Giannoudis, Martha Vasiliadi and Sofia Potari read and talk about Thanos’ translations of Four Poets on the Threshold of Modernism. And what a delight that they invited me—quite unexpectedly!—to read a couple in the original English. Thanks too Mythistoria Bookstore.
