"[Sappho's] verse has been elevated to new heights in [this] gorgeous translation." --The New York Times "This Sappho is whispering in our ear in a language we can understand." --Time Out New York "Carson is in many ways [Sappho's] ideal translator. . . . Her command of language is honed to a perfect edge and her approach to the text, respectful yet imaginative, results in verse that lets Sappho shine forth." --Los Angeles Times "A selfless, faithful, and boldly delicate achievement." --Boston Review

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this "gorgeous translation" (The New York Times), one of our most fearless and original poets provides a tantalizing window onto the genius of a woman whose lyric power spans millennia. Of the nine books of lyrics the ancient Greek poet Sappho is said to have composed, only one poem has survived complete. The rest are fragments. In this miraculous new translation, acclaimed poet and classicist Anne Carson presents all of Sapphos fragments, in Greek and in English, as if on the ragged scraps of papyrus that preserve them, inviting a thrill of discovery and conjecture that can be described only as electricor, to use Sapphos words, as thin fire . racing under skin. "Carson is in many ways [Sappho's] ideal translator. Her command of language is hones to a perfect edge and her approach to the text, respectful yet imaginative, results in verse that lets Sappho shine forth." Los Angeles Times The poetry book of the year, "If Not, Winter" irresistibly combines the ancient mysteries of Sappho with the contemporary wizardry of acclaimed poet and classicist Anne Carson in what is sure to become the standard translation of Sappho.
