From renowned painter and photographer Dimitris Yeros comes Shades of Love, a collection of photographs inspired by the classic poems of Constantine P. Cavafy, one of Greece's most influential writers. Yeros has produced nearly seventy photographic illustrations using a combination of models and fellow members of the artistic community including Gore Vidal, Clive Barker, and Jeff Koons as his subjects. These striking images bring out every nuance of Cavafy's writing, with romance, intrigue, humor, despair, and eroticism each playing a part. In addition to its visual richness, this hardcover book presents new English poetic translations of Cavafy by David Connolly (Eroticon, Journal of an Unseen April) which are faithful to the original Greek works while bringing new life to them for a new group of readers. The book features stunning portraiture, erotic photography, and new English translations of the poetry of C. P. Cavafy, who has been called the greatest modern Mediterranean poet. For fans of literary, artistic, celebrity, and LGBTQ photography, it includes a foreword by Edward Albee and an introduction by John Wood.
