Abstract
The article is devoted to the imagery in the first two poetry books “Do Not Distract the Driver” and “The Clavichords of Silence” by Nikos Engonopoulos, one of the brightest representatives of Greek surrealism. In his early works, the poet follows surrealist principles, the main of which is the principle of building paradoxical, illogical connections between ordinary objects. With the help of such connections it is considered possible to comprehend surreality. At the same time, the absurdity of images is not tantamount to incomprehensibility: their repetitions and use in various contexts made it possible to single out several key images and offer their interpretation in this article.
