More about the book
The book presents an innovative endeavor to recreate the lost poems of Sappho through imaginative construction rather than mere translation. Mr. Carman approaches this task with reverence and craftsmanship, akin to a sculptor restoring ancient statues from fragments. By envisioning each lost lyric as if it were discovered, he captures the essence of Sappho's original work while infusing it with the fluidity of original poetry. This unique method preserves the flavor of the ancient texts while allowing for creative expression.
