I came across Pavlopoulos some years ago, having read about him in a book by Peter Levi, who translates this collection. It's a strong collection, often bloody, but with a lovely delicate touch when it comes to the environment. Pavlopoulos describes the natural world - his natural world, which is rural Greece - so beautifully it's a real pleasure to read. "Uninhabited Island" was I think my favourite.
