  Bestselling author Michelle Lovric explores the alchemy of human passion in this brilliant anthology of poems and letters by vanished lovers from the ancient Mediterranean. In these new translations by Lovric and young scholar Mardas, 2,000-year-old declarations of love, lust, seduction, sensuality, longing, betrayal, regrets, and undying love are as fresh and relevant as contemporary song lyrics. 90 color illustrations.
