Report to Greco is not a formal autobiography, but rather the summing up, by a great artist, of a lifetime's ideas, work, experiences and friendships. In it, Kazantzakis searches for the roots of his own genius, describes his early interest in Nietzsche, his apprenticeship with Henri Bergson, his travels through Russia in the early days of the revolution, his tempestuous and deeply moving friendships and loves and-above all-the agonizing and never-ending process of artistic development that culminated in a whole series of inspired masterpieces. It is a book of epic themes, dominated by Kazantzakis's agonized search for a means to combine his love of life and art with his ceaseless quest for spiritual truth-a quest that led him from Bergson to Freud, from Freud to Lenin, from Lenin to Buddha, compelled by a deep desire to bring about, not only in art, but in life, a spiritual revolution, a 1917 of the soul. Kazantzakis has been acclaimed one of the truly great writers of our century by both Albert Schweitzer and Thomas Mann. Report to Greco is his credo, his summing up, his report to posterity on the efforts and the journeys of a lifetime.
