	Author	Review
United States	Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter	"A pleasantly low-key literary adaptation with a lot of ideas beneath the shimmering surface"	POS
United States	Diego Semerene Slant	"Honoré forces a stiffly traditional storytelling framework onto material that would have been better served through more experimental means (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times	"The result is a daring exploration of the inextricable and fluid relationships of sex, gender and power (...) Challenging, yet compelling"	POS
United States	Ben Sachs Chicago Reader	"Honoré doesn't seem to be saying anything, direct or indirect, about the current era. He does succeed, though, in conveying the joy of storytelling, which has made Ovid's work endure"	NEU
