"[Hughes's] 'Tales' is a mixed volume, part Hughes, part Ovid, part fealty and part wild transport: its ideal reader is someone who knows Ovid very well or not at all. The rest of us will be thrilled occasionally, but won't find a facing page of Latin to settle into, won't be asked to meet the hard grit of Ovid on Ovid's terms. The terms are entirely Hughes's own: in principle an audacious choice, but in practice...a little stingy."Hughes, Ted is the author of 'Tales from Ovid', published 1999 under ISBN 9780374525873 and ISBN 0374525870.
