4.0 out of 5 stars
Not Virgil or Homer but OK,
By Desert Rat (USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Trojan Epic: Posthomerica (Johns Hopkins New Translations from Antiquity) (Paperback)
Quintus was no Homer and no Virgil, but a good read just the same. Alan James translation into early 21st century English is excellent and makes the story readable for enjoyment not just as a literary duty. If you are tired of reading your classics in 18th and 19th century style this will be refreshing.
