Alexis Sorbas, die strahlende Titelfigur aus Nikos Kazantzakis’ weltberühmtem Roman, ist Lebenskünstler und -philosoph zugleich, voll sprudelnder Energie und gedanklicher Tiefe. In der Freundschaft des Ich-Erzählers mit Sorbas begegnen sich zweifelnde Vernunft und urwüchsig lebendige Kraft – Zutaten, die Kazantzakis mit der äußeren Handlung gekonnt zu einem liebevollen Porträt seiner Heimat Griechenland verwebt. Schon bald nach seinem Erscheinen 1946 trug der Roman seinem Autor Weltruhm ein. 1964 brillierte Anthony Quinn als Alexis Sorbas in der oscarprämierten gleichnamigen Verfilmung.
