Catullus wrote on a wide variety of subjects - love (for both women
and men), friendship, enmity, bereavement, the joy of homecoming
and of drinking wine... And his poems display many moods: from
romantic passion to bitter disillusionment, from teasing humour
when a friend doesn't acknowledge his unwellness to sharp satire
for a bad poet who thinks he's a good one, from grief expressed
with a light touch at the death of his sweetheart's sparrow to
total desolation on the death of his brother. All the poems have an
apparent simplicity and straightforwardness of expression: like
Roman frescoes and mosaics, they seem to speak directly to us.
