Tales from Ovid
by Ted Hughes
Ovid took some of the key Greek myths and made them into these wonderful stories. I’ve got lots and lots of different copies of the Metamorphoses, I think they’re essential. I could have chosen a straight translation, but I love Hughes’s poetic voice, and the way he uses language.
