The poetry of Kostas Papapostolou has all the characteristics of his generation, the 70s generation. Common features of this generation are its conscious inclusion in the margins of intellectual creation and a critical self-reflection. The notions of confinement, isolation, remembrance, and ambivalence constitute common poetic motifs running through this poetry The liminality of Kostas Papapostolou prompts him to poetically attempt to retrieve fragments from the deepest and most broken part of himself, an often painful kind of poetry, which is not only concerned with death but also with those who choose life and chronicle a course between the highest and lowest points of the human psyche and life's joys. That is why many of his poems keep a frantic pace and their starting point appears to be in a story that rarely reaches a conclusion. Thus, the beginning of the narrative remains unresolved and unsettled, many times ending abruptly, as if it recoils in order not to reveal itself and leads to the creation of a type of poetry that immerses us in terror because that is how one becomes more aware of the futility of being.
