How to Get Over a Breakup presents an unabashedly modern prose translation of Ovid?s lighthearted and provocative work, complete with a lively introduction and the original Latin on facing pages.Ovid?s advice?which he illustrates with ingenious interpretations of classical mythology?ranges from the practical, psychologically astute, and profound to the ironic, deliberately offensive, and bizarre. Some advice is conventional?such as staying busy, not spending time alone, and avoiding places associated with an ex. Some is off-color, such as having sex until you?re sick of it. And some is simply and delightfully weird?such as becoming a lawyer and not eating arugula.Whether his advice is good or bad, entertaining or outrageous, How to Get Over a Breakup reveals an Ovid who sounds startlingly modern.…
