Sweetbitter Love: Poems of Sappho

It is difficult to review a book of fragments. The few poems which can be read as entire poems are indeed beautiful, and the translation is sometimes quite lovely, but so many consist of just one word per line. If you read this, you will be examining a collection of historical relics, not a book of poems. However, the introduction is very good and worth the read. If you are really interested in Sappho, read it with joy. If you just want to read some great Greek poems and get a feel for them, almost anything else would be better.
