Gave a paper yesterday about musical settings of Durrell's poetry at the @DarkDurrell My first Durrell conference and, though I was very nervous, I enjoyed the experience a lot, got tons of new ideas and met lovely people. Also, it was a great excuse to visit Athens at last! 😎

The boys stir uneasily at their backgammon under the petrol-lamps: disturbed by this dry desert wind — so unromantic, so unconfiding — stir, and turn to watch every stranger. — Lawrence Durrell, The Alexandria Quartet (1957-1960) Tsarouchis

“Westward along the shingle beaches around Trianda the sea was laying down its successive washes of prussian blue and violet, and thinning them out as they touched sand to green and citrons and the innocent yellows you can see on the ripening skins of tangerines.”

Everything is blue and smells of sage. The marbles dazzle down below you. There are two eagles moving softly softly on the sky, like distant boats rowing across an immense violet lake. — Lawrence Durrell Delphi
