Nikos Kazantzakis | Report to Greco
Copyright: © Helen N. Kazantzakis, 1961
English translation: © Bruno Cassirer (Publishers) Ltd, 1965
Disarmingly personal and intensely philosophical, Report to Greco is a fictionalized account of Greek philosopher and writer Nikos Kazantzakis’s own life, a sort of intellectual autobiography that leads readers through his wide-ranging observations on everything from the Hegelian dialectic to the nature of human existence, all framed as a report to the Spanish Renaissance painter El Greco. The assuredness of Kazantzakis’s prose and the nimbleness of his thinking as he grapples with life’s essential questions - who are we, and how should we be in the world? - will inspire awe and more than a little reflection from readers seeking to answer these questions for themselves.- Language: English
