An accessible translation of the classic poem
A masterpiece of Western culture, this is the first attempt to link all the Greek myths in a cohesive whole to the Roman myths of Ovid's day. In this modern translation, Horace Gregory turns his own poetic gifts toward a deft reconstruction of Ovid's ancient themes of transformation, power, and love.
