A review by kalidels
The Art of Love by Ovid

3.0

Ovid gave some very poignant and relevant advice, particularly in the Cures for Love section. ("Don't reread old letters," "Go traveling. The less you want to go, the more you need to." "Be among friends.") I found the new translation and the rhyme scheme very charming, but at the end of the day I wasn't that interested in reading about how No means Yes for Roman men, or how one can get away with cheating.
