For The Odyssey of Homer:

"The best available verse translation of The Odyssey for Greekless Readers"
-Choice

"McCrorie's translation can be recommended without reservation to the generations of students to whom it is bound to be assigned."
-The Bloomsbury Review

For After a Cremation:

"Asian and classical powers rumble and vibrate in these volcanic poems,
transforming their cool New England settings as they have since Thoreau's day."
-The Beloit Poetry Journal

Suggested page somewhere up front:

"A phenomenal and masterly tour de force, a version of the Aeneid
translated line by line, remarkable for its fidelity to the original not only in literal meaning, but also-equally important-in spirit and sense."
-The Joint Association of Classical
Teachers Review (London)
