Review
"Slavitt's ability is clearly in evidence... These translations are rendered in lucid, contemporary English, bringing before us the atrocities, horrors, and grotesqueries of Imperial Rome."
(Classical Outlook)"Slavitt's translation is... lively and sometimes witty."
(Times Literary Supplement)"A good, sensational Senecan read."
(Queen's Quarterly)"The language in these translations [is] as fresh and gleaming as blood just spilled."
(Eleanor Wilner)"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
