Edmund Keeley's stunning translation brings Ancient Greek pith and urgency into the 21st Century: playful and oracular, Nakedness is My End is an essential study of human life in lyric form."--Karen Emmerich "In Keeley's lucid translations, we find just what we need: grace, humor, beauty, good advice, and succor; all that poetry has been bringing us through the darkness for these thousands of years. This expertly selected collection will remind you to 'treat yourself entirely to what good things there are.'"--Eleni Sikelianos "A new English translation of ancient masterworks, Nakedness is My End (World Poetry Books) contains poetry from Plato, Strato, Palladas, and others in a way that is accessible and meaningful for the modern reader." -- Princeton Alumni Weekly Poetry.
