A poetic conversation across miles and millennia, Sappho Prompts engages an ancient voice in contemporary poems of life and love. Margaret Lee's collection responds to ancient Greek fragments of Sappho, known in antiquity as The Poetess. Lee's poems affirm the universal appeal of Sappho's lyrics that celebrate beauty, love, and the natural world. Using Sappho's fragmentary lines as prompts, Lee crafts new poems with insights into the myths, desires, and longings that characterize Sappho's ancient songs. Sappho Prompts features Lee's translations of Sappho from the Greek with extensive notes, cover art by the author, and an explanatory essay explaining Sappho's context in ancient literature and her enduring influence.
