Poet of the Week: Andreas Kentzos | 08 June 2024

The Poet of the Week 03-09 June 2024 is Andreas Kentzos.

Andreas Kentzos (Athens, 1974) has published two poetry collections: Concrete Poems (Gavriilidis editions, 2010), Fourtyfour (Saixpirikon editions, 2014) and Darkness with Horses (Koukida editions, 2022). He also writes theatrical plays, two of which have been staged in Athens: “King Alexander”, at BIP theater in Kypseli, during the two months of February-March 2020 (forced interruption due to the pandemic) and “The flag of Athens”, at Apo Michanis theater in Metaxourgeio, in the quarter of February-April 2024. He lives and works in Athens.


Voice of Greece radio is once again including in its program the two-minute poetry tributes titled “Poet of the week”, with the aim of disseminating, supporting, and promoting the Greek language and culture.

Each weekly episode is a tribute to a contemporary poet from Greece or the Greek Diaspora.

The poets recite their poems themselves, against original music, composed and played in the studio of the Hellenic Radio by the musicians of the ERT Orchestra, as well as musical pieces by well-loved composers.

Seven poems every week, one Greek poem every day travels through the frequencies of “Voice of Greece” to the ends of the earth, where there are Greek voices.
