His first two collections of short stories, Toothpaste with Chlorophyll (1973) and Maritime Hot Baths (1980), published here for the first time in English, have long established Papadimitrakopoulos as one of the leading Greek writers, one whose work recalls such painters of the triste and ephemeral as Peter Altenberg, Sait Faik and Dezsö Kosztolányi, with here and there a maudlin, funny-sad brushstroke of James Thurber.

Mengenai Pengarang
Alekos Fassianos was born in Athens in 1935. He is widely considered to be one of Greece’s most significant and popular visual artists. He first trained in music and then studied painting at the School of Fine Arts of the National Technical University of Athens (1956-1960), where the painter Yannis Moralis was his chief instructor. In 1960, he earned a scholarship from the French government to study lithography at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He thereafter long lived in the French capital, often dividing his time between Paris and Athens. He now lives full-time in Athens, where the Alekos Fassianos Museum will soon open. He has illustrated books written by many important French, Greek, and other international poets, and has produced countless livres d ‘artistes for bibliophiles. His art works are housed in the best museums, art galleries, and private collections throughout the world, particularly in Athens, Paris, London, Geneva, and other European cities, as well as in Dubai, Russia, Tokyo, New York, Sao Paulo, and Melbourne. The artist’s highly personal, anthropocentric style has evolved, over the years, into a multifaceted visual treatise of everyday life and constitutes a moving symbol of postwar Greece.
