Catullus is a companion of lovers and of those whom love has disappointed. He is also a satirical and epigrammatic writer who savagely consoles with laughter.

A range of English metres and rhymes evokes the many modes and moods of this most engaging, erotic and influential of Latin poets.

Again in Carmina Krisak works his precise magic.
