Customer Reviews

This review is for the kindle edition
The book has a lot of great issue and you can't beat it for the price. Before each chapter it has comments by professors, ect about opinions of the work. This edition is worth it for that alone. I read the hardback version (Fagels) but at the begining of each book read the comments in this. This book has the actual work of Virgil, that follows each comment but is is formatted, as all poetry that I have come across on Kindle, with odd page line breaks and large gaps in between words in seemily random places. This doesn't affect meaning in reading, but since I had another edition, I usually read the commentary in this, then the books in Fagles, if I didn't have the hardback with me, I read it on kindle without difficulty. It is just a preference. This book, on Kindle can stand on it's own as a good read (if the white space doesn't bother you) and for a dollar is a great investment just for the commentary.
