Reviews
"[Stallings] couplets . . . have a lively, nimble music that should captivate modern ears . . . Providing an earthy, oboe-like obligato to Ms. Stallings's airs are the illustrations of Grant Silverstein, cross-hatched sketches that multiply like mice on the page . . . The Battle , in which beans are happily worn rather than eaten, still has the power to delight."-- Wall Street Journal "What fun it must have been for A. E. Stallings to discover The Battle Between the Frogs and the Mice when it first appeared at the Gennadius Library in Athens. The story is a classic parable 'in good Homeric Greek' that underscores the futility of war but is replete with foolish names and activities that an author like Stallings can play with in rhymed couplets, giving free range to her imagination and wit. She might have taken a scholarly approach; instead the book is a rollicking, fast-paced romp, easily read in a sitting."-- The Hudson Review "A unique and delightfully entertaining read."-- Midwest Book Review "A virtuosic, witty, charming translation of the greatest epic ever written about mice, with wonderful illustrations by Grant Silverstein. Stallings' elegant rhyming couplets are the perfect choice to honor the mousy Muse."-- Emily Wilson, Professor of Classics, University of Pennsylvania "Stallings' translation of this ancient epic is a delight: charming, witty, and vividly alive, with buoyant rhymes and eye-catching illustrations. I suspect this will become a beloved addition in many home libraries."-- Madeline Miller, bestselling author of Circe "The characters of this dazzling epic spring to life (and death!) in Grant Silverstein's exquisitely detailed drawings." -- Ann Temkin, Chief Curator, Department of Painting and Sculpture, The Museum of Modern Art "A delightful translation of an overlooked gem of ancient Greek satire."-- A. M. Juster PRAISE FOR A. E. STALLINGS: "[O]ne of the strongest talents to emerge in recent years."-- Poetry "Through her technical dexterity and graceful fusion of content and form, Stallings is revealing the timelessness of poetic expression and antiquity's relevance for today."-- MacArthur Foundation "Stallings demonstrates formidable confidence in her technical skill, exploring fixed forms, tinkering with traditions, and creating her own combinations of meter and rhyme. She also takes chances."-- Harvard Review on Hapax "A. E. Stallings is not a perfect poet but a poet of perfection, with the patience and courage to bring to her poems what American poetry so rarely knows how to give, and American readers hardly dare to receive; lapidary finish of both form and reading."-- The Yale Review "The most gifted formalist of her generation."-- The Hudson Review "Poet A. E. Stallings has carved a niche for herself by blending contemporary themes with the images and history of ancient literature. A resident of Athens, Greece for the last two decades, Stallings witnesses every day the juxtaposition of ancient and modern . . . she combines the haunting beauty of Greek myth with the daily occupations of modern life. The reader comes away with a deeper appreciation for the fact that the people of long-gone eras were, in important ways, the same as us." The Objective Standard, "A virtuosic, witty, charming translation of the greatest epic ever written about mice, with wonderful illustrations by Grant Silverstein. Stallings' elegant rhyming couplets are the perfect choice to honor the mousy Muse."-- Emily Wilson, Professor of Classics, University of Pennsylvania "Stallings' translation of this ancient epic is a delight: charming, witty, and vividly alive, with buoyant rhymes and eye-catching illustrations.

There are haters of such pleasures, to be sure; they are legion. But I think the poetry of A. E. Stallings will outlast them."-- The Hudson Review, "[O]ne of the strongest talents to emerge in recent years."-- Poetry "Through her technical dexterity and graceful fusion of content and form, Stallings is revealing the timelessness of poetic expression and antiquity's relevance for today."-- MacArthur Foundation "Stallings demonstrates formidable confidence in her technical skill, exploring fixed forms, tinkering with traditions, and creating her own combinations of meter and rhyme.
