Présentation en anglais Smoke and piercing sunlight, tenderness and mockery, and all that a human can harbor within the heart and mind is to be found in Youlountas' poetry-works. With sheer willpower he paces from the land of Ritsos to that of Baudelaire, his alexandrine feet leading him from taverna to brasserie, welcoming to his table a very diverse public : philosophers, poets, lovers of every kind, activists and dreamers. "With neither master nor collar", this "seaside stray" is resolutely free. His writing reveals a tenacious quest for the profound significance of humanity. His caustic criticism, denunciatory pamphlets, and social satire seek to shake up our silent consciences, our negligent submission to the blights of our time : violence, injustice, blind consumerism, and so much else.
