Mythology is often either told to children through fairy-tale like versions, or ensconced within academic-like tomes. Classical expert Philip Freeman here strikes a balance, re-telling Greek and Roman myths as they were told by the Greeks and Romans-dark and disturbing and completely free of bowdlerization-but simplified in style for the modern-day reader. 348 pages, indexed, softcover.
Please note: graphic depictions of rape, sexuality, and violence.
