annick's review against another edition
4.0
I think it’s best read in small parts. I finished the last third over a few days and I lost interest in the work. Because of this binging.
I also like how fry highlights the homoerotic and trans representation in the ancient myths. I wish he’d picked up the systemic misogyny and racism
Laced into the cultures and myths. I recommend Natalie Haynes for addressing the sexism and misogyny in Greek myths.
I don’t plan to re read this book and there are some things I’d want to change - this is why it’s only four stars.
Moderate: Death, Infidelity, Sexism, Sexual violence, Suicide, Violence, Kidnapping, and Murder
