DREAMS OF CLAY, DROPS OF DEW: SELECTED POEMS By Dina Amanatides

Translated from the original Greek into English by academic and literary translator Konstandina Dounis.

Published as part of the 'Writing the Greek Diaspora Series', this work will be officially launched by Maria Vamvakinou MP, Federal Member for Calwell.

Dina Amanatides has been a prolific writer within the Greek-Australian community for over fifty years. She has produced eighteen books of poetry and prose, all in the Greek language and has been included in numerous anthologies both here and in Greece.
