"Accomplishes what before now had seemed impossible: a faithful rendering that is simultaneously an original and gripping poem in its own right." ―New York Times Book Review
"Excellent ancillary materials in this critical edition make a potentially alienating text and culture accessible and engaging." ―Tim Melnarik, California State University, San Bernardino
