“Bowditch is to be congratulated for writing such a nuanced, critical, and timely contribution to classical and literary studies. … I recommend this book to anyone looking for an example of how to use postcolonial theory in the study of ancient literatures, and especially to those who work on ancient erotic or romantic literature … . Though best suited to scholars and experts, this book would also be a good resource for graduate students … .” (R. Gillian Glass, Bryn Mawr Classical Review (BMCR), bmcr.brynmawr.edu, December 25, 2024)
