My fervent wish:
«May the positive ideas and messages that spring out of my poetic reflections blossom in the soul and mind of my readers, just as the bud on the cover of this book suggests.»

BRIEF DESCRIPTION
This book is in a way special, because it is bilingual and mutually translated. It contains a number of poetic texts which, at the moment of their inspiration, were written in one of two languages: English or Greek. In order to include both English and Greek texts in one book and under the name of the same author, I chose to present them in the language of creation, accompanied by a parallel translation The poetic productions of this volume are distributed in three parts, depending on the type of poetry that they represent. Part one contains poems, part two is composed of elegies dedicated to the Holocaust and part three presents some poetic reflections. The latter are a different type of writing, which combines poetry and psychology. They were written in the purpose of examining human problems and proposing solutions that are viable and positive. The list of texts and their characteristics, in the back of the book, can help the reader find the language of creation and other details regarding every poetic text. |

ECHOES OF THE SOUL AND THE MIND / ΑΝΤΙΛΑΛΟΙ ΤΗΣ ΨΥΧΗΣ ΚΑΙ ΤΟΥ ΝΟΥ |
|
Poetry and prose are verbal creations by means of which authors express their ideas, impressions and emotions. These cultivate the soul and expand the person’s internal world. When the reader reads them, he (she) tends to identify with the author’s writings and either adopts them or decides to abandon them and replace them with his (her) own ideas, impressions and emotions. This psychological process usually results in an enrichment of the person’s internal world and, hopefully, an improvement of his (her) personality. The sensitisation of the reader, which may occur after the end of this process, and the positive results that may be obtained are some of the reasons which motivated the writing of this volume. Having all this in mind, may I, now, present to you my bilingual book. Author: Felicity Mat |
