Ovid’s Metamorphoses - C. Luke Soucy - Bog

"An astonishing translation. Soucy's sophisticated rhythms carry the force, violence, and beauty of Ovid's immortal poem. Reading it, reading it out loud, I felt so palpably the vitality thrumming beneath the refinement of form."--Richie Hofmann, author of A Hundred Lovers "What a pleasure to read! For anyone who knows the original, Luke Soucy's swift translation of Ovid's Metamorphoses is full of ingenuity and resourcefulness; for newcomers, it is a superb introduction to the poem's pace and spirit."--Jeff Dolven, author of Senses of Style: Poetry before Interpretation
