About Aaron Poochigian's translation "Aristophanes was a funny,
often obscene social commentator, and he was also a brilliantly
fluent, wide-ranging poet, whose lyric rhythms were recited and
sung to music, with dancing. It's very rare for modern translators
to convey his poetic virtuosity or make any attempt to bring his
meters to life. But Aaron Poochigan has achieved this feat,
crafting polymetric translations that convey the whole range of
Aristophanes' larger-than-life characters and provocative,
alternative-reality scenarios. This new translation is zany, sharp,
inventive, vivacious, and surprisingly relevant for our times."
-EMILY WILSON, translator of Homer's Odyssey
