PRAISE FOR DAVID R. SLAVITT"Slavitt's touch is light, and he writes
beautifully.... His satire is sharp, and he can be wildly funny."
-- New York Times Book Review"One of America's most lucid and
classical poets.... Slavitt's attitude is, as one would expect of a
Hebrew as well as Greco-Latin classicist, sharply questioning as
well as tragic. He is a poet one reads to know more." --
Booklist"Slavitt is both smart and wise; he's as well known for his
translations of the writers of antiquity as he is for his original
work, both poetry and prose.... With a rich sense of humor, a bit
of attitude, and a fascination with details, even minutiae, Slavitt
tries his hand at new and curious measures and forms as well as
seemingly free-range meditations -- or, one might say,
meanderings." -- Library Journal
