Nate Klug's \u003ci\u003eRude Woods\u003c\/i\u003e is an inspired, modern response, a new translation that blends talkative elegance with lyric intensity. \"In a manner that is as successful as it is surprising,\" notes W.R. Johnson in his introduction, \"Klug has devised a conversational idiom that relies on spare diction and spare syntax, on a pure clarity of sight and sound to give us superb poems that give Virgil's pure lyricism a genuine 'answering form.'\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNate Klug\u003c\/b\u003e studied literature at the University of Chicago and theology at Yale.
