Virgil

Opis

These delightful poemsby turns whimsical, beautiful, and vulgarseem to have primarily survived because they were attributed to Virgil. But in David R. Slavitt s imaginative and appealing translations, they stand firmly on their own merits. Slavitt brings to this little-known body of verse a fresh voice, vividly capturing the tone and style of the originals while conveying a lively sense of fun."
