This was recommended to me by a friend and I’m so glad she told me about it! It’s an excellent book recounting the classic Ancient Greek myths. Fry’s style is wonderfully simple yet very entertaining. I also enjoyed his comments on how these myths still affect us, including how words and phrases of ours have been derived from their names. An awesome book!
