Thanks for the info. I'll go with Fitzgerald, then. I liked his version of the Odyssey, and I remember hearing him read from his latest translation (can't recall which it was) when I was in high school. He was quite old, but he had so much passion and affection for the material, it was impossible not to become interested.

Much like it is in reading your comments on various Greek epics. I'm with Spica - I wish I'd had you as my classics instructor when I was in school; I might not have stopped studying them when I did. :)
