"Pleasures," a gift book for lovers and for those who respect the madness of love, and especially for those who are about to experience it, enjoy it, and cherish it.
An original and completely poetic romantic "manifesto" in an age where love, instead of being the joy of life and the driving force of everything, is becoming, losing all sense of romance and tenderness, more and more commercially sensual or violent to the point of exterminating the weaker of the two.
For this edition, Agathi Dimitrouka selected -to reflect all trends- twenty-five romantic epigrams from the Palatine Anthology, one poem by Sappho, and two by Alcaeus, which she translated and reimagined into eighteen contemporary poetic songs presenting them as follows: on one page the ancient text and its exact translation, and on the other the corresponding song, ready for musical composition.
Oh Love, either entirely remove the "I love" or add the "I am loved" and erase injustices. Make sure to share the desire equally between the two if you want to be called a god; otherwise, you are not a god.
