Why this site exists
] of the nine books, one poem / whole, and the rest in pieces [
Sappho wrote nine books. One poem survives complete. The rest came to us as quotations in other people's grammar textbooks, as scraps of papyrus used to wrap mummies, as lines someone remembered wrongly. We read her in fragments and it has never stopped being enough.
This site reviews adult websites from that position: attention paid to something the world does not think deserves it, in language that apologises for neither the subject nor the attention.
Every review here is written. Four axes get a number — catalogue, design, discovery, honesty — and the verdict is a sentence, not a score. Sites are named plainly. Nothing is ranked because someone paid for the ranking, and no link here is an affiliate link.
The fragments at the head of each piece are ours. They are written in her register, not translated from her — the surviving translations belong to their translators.
We host nothing and stream nothing. What we have is an opinion and the sentences to hold it.
