Default Review of my book of Martial translations
I just discovered that my book of selected translations of the Latin poet Martial has been reviewed by classicist Anthony Verity in Classics for All Reviews. I was pleased by his assessment and, of course, grateful for the publicity.

Classy, Susan. It's great when brainy work is recognized and you have got much well-deserved attention for these translations.

Good stuff Susan. Good Martial translations are not as common as one might hope. How do you do the one to the little dead slave-girl?
