He belonged to the so-called Genia tou 70, a literary term referring to Greek authors who began publishing their work during the 1970s, especially towards the end of the Greek military junta of 1967-1974 and during the first years of the Metapolitefsi.

For his collection of poems With the Light, published in 1999, he received the Greek National Book Award for the Year 2000 and the poetry prize of the prestigious literary journal Diavazo. The French Ministry of Culture honored him with its Knighthood of Arts and Letters, and the municipality of Heraklion awarded him the Nikos Kazantzakis Literary Prize.
