it was amazing

Unstoppably funny. The Clouds is an old favorite and the Frogs a more recent discovery but Aristophanes is definitely my sense of humor; certainly, I find him much funnier than Menander, who is more a chore than anything else for me. How could I forget Lysistrata?!

This edition, in particular, is dear to me. I think that translation is especially good and, since first being exposed to it in college, I've met one of the still-living translators, Douglass Parker. Parker is as funny as you would expect.
