⭐Haven’t started reading this yet, but I can tell it’s a great book. Thank you

⭐I’m reading Ovid on my own. The guide is helpful in that it clarifies and points out things that I missed. Glad I bought it.

⭐This reader’s guide is the reason I’ve been making all A’s and A+’s in my Metamorphoses class this semester! This guide is a must! Thanks so much!

⭐Very good guide to Ovid’s metamorphoses which i am studying as part of open university course. Highly recommend it.

⭐This is a useful book – but I felt that it demystified Ovid a little too much. I like a bit of a challenge and the temptation for many students might be to read this book and not bother reading Ovid at all.

⭐bit far fetched
