Description:
C. P. Cavafy is one of the most singular and poignant voices of twentieth-century European poetry, conjuring a magical interior world through lyrical evocations of remembered passions, imagined monologues and dramatic retellings of his native Alexandria's ancient past. Figures from antiquity speak with telling interruptions from the author in such poems as 'Anna Comnena' and 'You did not understand', while precise moments of history are seen with a sense of foreboding, as in 'Ides of March', 'The God Abandoning Antony' and 'Nero's Deadline'. And in poems that draw on his own life and surroundings, Cavafy recalls illicit trysts or glimpses of beautiful young men in 'One Night', 'I have gazed so much' and 'The Cafe Entrance', and creates exquisite miniatures of everyday life in 'An Old Man' and 'Of the Shop'.

Good Fit for a Bigger Guy
Size: 18" Neck 34"-35" Sleeve, Color: Vert
I'm a bigger guy--6-foot, 240lbs--so I struggle sometimes with finding the right fit. This shirt fit my broad shoulders and ample mid-section with ease, and I was even able to tuck it in. I have long arms (76-inch reach), and this shirt fit the bill. I liked this shirt so much that I ordered seven colors--enough for each day of the week. After a year, the fabric is still strong and the colors vibrant.

Some wrinkles
Size: 17.5" Neck 36"-37" Sleeve, Color: Vert
I would say that it’s more wrinkle resistant than wrinkle free, you’ll probably still have to iron this one. The collar stays are sewn inside the shirt collar so they cannot be changed or replaced (not compatible with magnetic collar stays). Otherwise it fits well and was reasonably priced but not quite what I wanted.
