In its earthiness, its psychological acuity, this classic work continues to speak over the centuries to our time. "Reading Mandelbaum's extraordinary translation, one imagines Ovid in his darkest moods with the heart of Baudelaire...Brilliant."—BooklistTopic: FantasyRelease Year: 1995 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
