Beschreibung
His first two collections of short stories, Toothpaste with Chlorophyll (1973) and Maritime Hot Baths (1980), published here for the first time in English, have long established Papadimitrakopoulos as one of the leading Greek writers, one whose work recalls such painters of the triste and ephemeral as Peter Altenberg, Sait Faik and Dezso¿ Kosztolänyi, with here and there a maudlin, funny-sad brushstroke of James Thurber.

Über den Autor
Elias Papadimitrakopoulos was born in Pyrgos, in 1930, the son of a well-known lawyer in the city. His father's death in 1943, during the German occupation, caused the family's financial ruin-and this period is often evoked in his stories, notably in Toothpaste with Chlorophyll and Maritime Hot Baths. Papadimitrakopoulos subsequently studied medicine at the Military Medical School of the University of Thessaloniki (1949-1955), specializing in pathology. He thereafter worked as a military doctor, serving in the Greek Army until his retirement in 1983. His first contributions to literary reviews began in the 1960s, notably with the appearance in 1962 of his first short story in the magazine Argo. During the same years, he began to publish-as a short-story writer, film critic, and literary critic-in other important magazines such as Tachidromos, Dialogos, Anti, Khartis, Kroniko, and To Tetarto. One of the most beloved and admired Greek short-story writers, Papadimitrakopoulos received the Petros Haris Foundation Prize from the Academy of Athens in 2010 and the National Literary Award in 2015. His collected short stories are now gathered in a six-volume set published by Gavriilidis. He lives in Athens and, during the summer, on the island of Paros.
