My flatmate said, “he turned a ring into a penis” and I knew I needed to find this book. Amores by Ovid is fascinating yet hilarious, particularly Elegy XV which is a love letter to a mistress… “To touch her hand thou wilt the pleasure have; I now must envy what myself I gave. O! would a Proteus or a Circe change Me to thy form, that I like thee might range ! Then would I wish thee with her breasts to play, And her left hand beneath her robes to stray. Tho' straight she thought me, I will then appear”

I did this last night and it was a hilarious voyeuristic joy. A great tale of intimacy, being a perv and a simp, and shames. High levels of erotic creativity and ridiculousness coming Live from 1909 Ireland. “Time fly on, fly on quickly! I want to go back to my love, my life, my star, my little strange-eyed Ireland!”
