Costas Taktsis (Greek: Κώστας Ταχτσής) (October 8, 1927 - August 27, 1988) was a Greek writer. Described as a 'landmark of post-war literature in Greece', Taktsis wrote The Third Wedding (Greek: To Trito Stefani / το τρίτο στεφάνι) partly in Australia. The book unfolds in the years before and after World War II through the flowing personal narrative of two women: Ekavi and Nina, who speak in a direct and everyday language about what they live through. Unable to find a publisher in Greece he published it at his own expense in 1962. The book has been translated into 18 languages. The French edition was released by Éditions Gallimard in 1967, translated by Jacques Lacarrière. In 1969 it became the first Greek novel published by Penguin Books. A new English translation by John Chioles, was published as The Third Wedding Wreath, by Hermes in 1985.
