Review Quotes: "Halliwell pairs his fluency in rendering verse with deftness at capturing the complexities of Aristophanes' language, which gives his translations particular verve." - The Classical Journal

"It would be hard to find a better companion to Aristophanes, for classicists but perhaps especially for the general reader." - Classics for All
