The Moonlight Sonata of Yiannis Ritsos
Critics say that all of Yiannis Ritsos poetry except for his 'Moonlight Sonata' is Communist propaganda, as this is his only nonpolitical work.
One need not be in agreement with an artist or poet's politics, sexual views or practices, religion, or madness to appreciate the ΘΥΜΌΣ (soul, or heart) found in his/her art.
Here then is an internet link through which you may read the poem in Greek and English:
