"[Sappho's] verse has been elevated to new heights in [this] gorgeous translation." --The New York Times

"This Sappho is whispering in our ear in a language we can understand." --Time Out New York

"Carson is in many ways [Sappho's] ideal translator.... Her command of language is honed to a perfect edge and her approach to the text, respectful yet imaginative, results in verse that lets Sappho shine forth." --Los Angeles Times
