Sappho’s Fragments were absolutely wonderful. The poetry was so beautifully crafted and explored the likes of love, womanhood, marriage, the gods, death and my personal favourite couple being on Troy. There was also analysis and notes accompanying each fragment which was really engaging and gave great context of each. It was really unstressful, beautifully written poems which I kind of needed in my current read as I don’t think I could’ve coped with much that was heavy. It’s just upsetting that we only have fragments but I suppose we can be thankful at least those survived.
Really loved this little book.
