Yiorgis Sakellariou’s “Degti†reviewed by Against the Silence

“Stikhiya†reviewed by Blow Up
Il titolo è uma parola russa che indica un contatto e una immersione immediata, quase magica, con la natura, senza mediazioni intellettualistiche, usata dai poeti nell’800 (Tolstoj e Blok i riferimenti letterari).
