## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ FAR better than the free translations available
*by C***N on January 22, 2012*

This translation of a classic tale is done in a lovely fashion with special attention to the poetry's meter and vocabulary. Archaic words are defined seamlessly to the right of the line, and are not too dense for non English-scholars.The notes at the beginning of the text are golden for those interested in the "music" of the words. There's a bit about scansion that is very illuminating. I have not yet read the critical essays, but there are several to aid in your deep-reading of the text.Context helps a lot since this tale is SO old.I had previously read a prose translation. There are free ones available because they are out of copyright. It was suitable for getting across the plot, but it was not as lovely to read as the version featured here.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Used (Boring Story)
*by A***E on November 9, 2018*

This book did come used with notes handwritten in. The notes could bother others but they really helped me understand what was going on in the story. I did not care for the story (it was very hard to stay interested in) but I’m giving 5 stars for the book itself.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Classic Work Impeccably Translated
*by E***N on February 22, 2018*

This poem is a masterpiece of literature, and this particular translation is the best that I've ever encountered. Additionally, the critical essays in the back of the book are truly enlightening. Anyone that appreciates remarkable literature (with excellent comedy) should purchase this book.
