Odysseus Elytis

“In front of the ridge of Serifos when the sun rises the cannons of all the great worldviews get inflammation."

— Odysseus Elytis

*Despite the rivalry between the two great poets, when Elytis finally won the award, Ritsos stated: “The awarding of the Nobel Prize to our great Greek poet Odysseus Elytis is not an honor to Elytis, but an honor to the Nobel itself. “
