This paper examines three versions of Cavafy’s poem, “The City”, by the American poet, A.E. Stallings. Stallings, since 1999 resident in Greece, has often addressed issues of home and exile. Her different versions show not only a development in her attitude towards translation but also a growing awareness of the universality of Cavafy’s great poem on exile.
