Publisher's Synopsis
Yannis Livadas is a contemporary Greek poet, born in 1969. In 1993 he invented the fusion-sonnet. In 2008 he came up with the idea of organic antimetathesis, the transpositional synthesis of poetry based on the scaling indeterminacy of meaning, of syntactic comparisons and structural contradistinction. He works as an editor, translator and independent scholar with specialization on modernism, postmodernism and haiku. He is also a columnist and freelancer contributor to various literary magazines, both in Greece and other countries. His poems and essays have been translated into ten languages. He lives in Paris, France.
