Gerytades

In English verse.

A. M. Juster’s tongue-in-cheek retelling, in rhyming English verse, of Gerytades, the comedy Aristophanes staged in Athens in 408 BC, of which only scraps survive. Illustrated, with an introduction by the poet and translator Aaron Poochigian.

“In this comedy-turned-fairytale, there is a quest, a quest to save poetry.” Aaron Poochigian

What? No applause? Across the centuries,
most people recognize Euripides.
