Gorgeous translation.

Barnard does a wonderful job in this translation which contains most of Sappho's poetry (though more has been discovered since this book was originally published). The book features a useful (but brief) introduction and footnote (afterword).

I gave this book a 5 star because it is in like new condition for a used book. I enjoy the history behind Sappho and being able to have her poems even just the small bits of them put in a language that I can read is fantastic. I can just imagine what the rest of the poems might have been.
