description: The poetry of George Seferis (1900-1971), Greece's first Nobel Prize winner for literature, has been accessible to English and American readers in excellent translations for over two decades. In the present volume, My Brother George Seferis, we have what may be considered as the first biography of Seferis in English. It certainly is the fullest and most sensitive record of the poet's formative years, 1912-1941, written by the one person who knew him best of all - his "little sister" Ioanna, a poet in her own right. The narrative, richly documented with letters which Seferis wrote to his sister throughout this period, concentrates on the young man "born with an open wound of sensitivity with which he faced the difficulties of life."
