The Art of Love
Ovid,Tom Payne
‘Any man who shows, with such poetic readability, that what is happening between the sexes today was happening two thousand years ago - and that, therefore, the beating out of one’s guilt-ridden, female brains is something of a waste of time - has to be a hero’ - Independent
The perfect gift for Valentine’s Day
TRANSLATED BY TOM PAYNE AND INTRODUCED BY HEPHZIBAH ANDERSON
The Art of Love may have been written in the days of gladiators and emperors, but Ovid remains the smartest teacher on the subject of love in all of history, and his advice is enduringly useful and entertaining. Between these covers you’ll find all you need to know about where to meet a new beau, how to handle illicit affairs and how to maintain your allure. This edition also contains the companion volume The Cure for Love - in case things don’t work out.
