On what would have been the 160th birthday of the Alexandria-born Greek poet C. P. Cavafy, a week-long festival in New York City, called Archive of Desire, brings together artists from a variety of backgrounds to celebrate his work. The festival's curator Paola Prestini and fellow Alexandrian wordsmith Andre Aciman, author of the novel, Call Me By Your Name, discuss Cavafy's life and legacy.
