I don't know why it took me so long to get around to reading Sappho but it was worth the wait. I loved this collection. It's a slice of Lesbian life circa 600BCE; Sappho's job, her everyday worries, her loves. I particularly loved Pieria's Rose, which gave me major Crossing Brooklyn Ferry by Whitman vibes.
And men, I think, will never quite forget...more
My songs or me; so long as stars shall set
Or sun shall rise, or hearts feel love's desire,
My voice shall cross their dreams, a sigh of fire.
