Homunculus is a long poem from award-winning poet and translator
James Womack, based around the Elegies of the Roman poet Maximian.
The last of the Roman poets, Maximian wrote in the sixth century,
after the fall of the Western Roman Empire; critics have called his
Elegies 'one of the strangest documents of the human mind', and
W.H. Auden singled him out as a 'really remarkable poet'. Womack's
versioning of the Elegies shows how this harsh poem of sex and old
age can speak to our own contemporary, collapsing world.
