The Little Mariner is the major work of Odysseus Elytis, since he was awarded the Noble Prize in Literature in 1979. A conceptual tour de force, this volume of poetry represents a stunning lyrical-philosophical crowning achievement to a literary career committed to music, generosity, and justice in equal measures.

The book is in great condition for it's age. Some of the pages are still uncut and all of them are in great condition without any markings or tears. There is some degradation spotted mostly on the soft paper binding as seen in the pictures posted.
