Horace's words have become some of the most memorable, durable phrases, lines and poems ever written and, although he lived over 2000 years ago, the intricately woven poems of this humble son of a freed slave have something to say about how to live all these centuries later. 'Horace and Me' charts Harry Eyres' evolving relationship with the Latin poet to show how, in a time of affluence and excess which seems to be hurtling out of control, Horace can help us navigate our way in these uncertain times.
