No Realtor Was Compensated for This Sale is the debut collection by the Athens-based poet, Helen Dimos. The co-organizer of the annual Paros Translation Symposium, she hosts a twice-monthly English-language radio show, peopletalk, at the Athens art center, Beton7. Dimos has chosen the following quote as emblematic of the contents of this book:

I'm surprised you exist. But actually surprised, no poetic incredulity
Your existence is so good

when you are away your realness slips through me

You write and two hands
scoop under my lungs invisible hands enter my body
