Confusing to read if you aren’t used to the style. Good reading though.
The book is styled that you read all the left side pages first then the right sided pages or Vice versa, but you don’t read the book from left page to right or right page to left. It is great reading though.

This was a very readable translation which, I believe, kept the spirit and the tone of the original as well as possible. For those who are researching mythology, this provides the basis, as far as it goes (Homer has some that this does not, while this has some that Homer does not; and Ovid used sources beyond just these two), for Ovid's Metamorphoses and many other works and plays.

A Spring of Greek Storytelling
Work roughly contemporary with those of Homer, the poems of Hesiod are one of the main springs of Greek mythology. Lattimore's translations render the original into good English verse, making this book necessary for the classicist or the Hellenist Reconstructionist.Review by the author of A Draft of Moonlight.

Must have!
The illustrations brings life to the work! Also, the completed work of Hesiod is a must have!
