Excerpt From Zorba The Greek Poem by RIC BASTASA

Excerpt From Zorba The Greek

Rating: 5.0


'What is your favorite dish, grandad? '
'All of them, my son. It's a great sin to say this is good and that is bad.'
'Why? Can't we make a choice? '
'No, of course we can't.'
'Why not? '
'Because there are people who are hungry.'

I was silent, ashamed.
My heart had never been able to reach that height of nobility and compassion.
