The Golden Face.

STEPHANIDES, Theodore. The Golden Face. FIRST EDITION. Fortune Press. 1965
Half title. Orig. pale yellow cloth. Printed cream d.w., unclipped. Presentation inscription 'To Leslie Shepard with the author's best compliments, Theodore Stephanides, London 18-3-66'. 96pp.

¶One of the polymaths of the twentieth century, Theodore Stephanides, 1896-1993, was portrayed in such great works as Prospero's Cell, My Family and Other Animals, and The Colossus of Maroussi. The poems in this volume, which was presented to the author, curator, and archivist Leslie Shepard, form a sort of island jeremiad not unlike Prospero's Cell, but more accusatory than mournful in tone.
