While any translation is in some way a betrayal of the original text, these fragments, poems, and epitaphs from ancient Greek do have a certain charm in English. :) I think this book is best read in quiet moments over the course of several days, as a sort of guided meditation. Connecting with people who lived 2500 years ago always feels rather mystical to me!

It was interesting to read these poems (translated to Englsh from the Ancient Greek). Certain themes are timeless.
