Orange

<p>Like the song Orange is about longing and desire: the passing seasons autumn turns into winter permeate these lyrics with a finely tuned eloquence. Vibrant and radiant the poems are inspired by a powerful and subtle music becoming deeply embedded beneath the skin. A prolific poet Manolis Aligizakis possesses a distinctly Mediterranean flavour as would a poet schooled on Cavafy or Elytis: aromatic tangy like the freshness of an olive grove in the morning. e poems revel in the vitality of the sensuous motion of language on a sea of thought. In the fervid expression of Orange Manolis Aligizakis forges a cogent alloy of mind and heart flesh and spirit. Originally written in Greek Orange is presented in an elegant en face edition.</p>
