What is If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho?

If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho is Anne Carson’s 2002 bilingual edition of Sappho’s surviving poetry, presenting Greek texts alongside English translations. Carson includes every Sappho fragment compiled in Eva-Maria Voigt’s Sappho et Alcaeus: Fragmenta (1971) that contains at least one legible word. She uses brackets and blank space to indicate damaged papyri and preserve the fragmentary experience of reading Sappho.
