Short but eye opening book. * Tom Holland, New Statesman * A crisp, sparkling distillation of long thought. * Michael Wood, Comfort Classics * This one is a really loving account of Ovid, with a very simple structure. It takes you through his major works, with the Metamorphoses obviously at the centre. [...] It's a wonderful little book. I can't think of a better introduction to the work of this figure who is, arguably, the single most influential poet of antiquity. * Paul Lay, FiveBooks *
