Barry B. Powell
Reviews and Awards
"Critical acclaim for Barry B. Powell: "Powell's style is individual and self-assured, and his lines cry out to be read aloud." - Denis Feeney, Princeton University
"Barry Powell's clever translation is simple and energetic: sometimes coarse, sometimes flowing, it is always poetically engaged." - Margalit Finkleberg, University of Tel Aviv
"Powell's muscular verses are faithful to the original Greek but bring the characters to life. This is a page-turner, bound to become the new standard translation." - Ian Morris, Stanford University
