description: Ewan Whyte has done a remarkable job in providing us with a current and contemporary translation of one of the greatest writers/poets of all time. Bawdy, crude, passionate, venomous, satirical...this is a poet who is always vital and current. Why a bilingual edition? Because modern readers will love to read the Latin text out loud! And, Latin is experiencing a global 'comeback'. Radio Finland broadcasts a program in Latin and even TIME Magazine has stated that Latin is coming-back. Here is a book to get on the wave' with!
