The City is an 1894 poem by Constantin Cavafy. Originally written in Greek, an English translation appears in the appendix of the Lawrence Durrell novel Justine (Faber and Faber, 1957); Cavafy is a character in the work. The narrator of Justine refers to his translation of the poem "The City" as "by no means literal" (page 221).
