"This new translation promises to be a grand adventure for the imaginations of graduates, undergraduates, and general readers."鈥�Choice
"Alexander's translations of the satires are unusually readable. . . . They project an image of the poet as a Socratic loner, edgy, irritable, ultimately at odds with the city he loves. . . . But having rendered the satires and the odes in one go, Alexander allows us glimpses of a more subtle Horace."鈥擳om D'Evelyn, The Boston Book Review
"Alexander's translations are accurate yet vigorous and fluent, avoiding both archaisms and contemporary idioms."鈥�Library Journal
