THIS COLLECTION explores the theme of longing in today's fast-moving global world where sentiments are relegated as vintage. Words that took years, months, weeks, and days to get from one partner to the other now fly through in seconds with technology. How does that alter and morph our perspective on love, our perception of the world around us? The author navigates from ancient emotions to the 'modern' feelings probed in her poems.

This selection of poems is also a tribute in gratitude to the kindness and openness of the contemporary Greek
poets the author is involved with via her Athenian poetry society, A Poets' Agora.
