Charles Martin combines a close fidelity to Ovid’s text with verse that catches the speed and liveliness of the original.
Martin’s Metamorphoses will be the translation of choice for contemporary readers in English. This volume also includes endnotes and a glossary of people, places, and personifications.
“A version that has been long awaited, and likely to become the new standard.” —Michael Dirda, Washington Post
