Greek Mythology: Gods and Heroes Brought to Life by Robert Garland

4.0

The tales of Greek mythology are legend and have different interpretations depending on the writer at the time. What Garland has done is to try to write a very accessible introduction to these tales. The stories are often in the first person and with a very modern inflexion which makes the stories easy to read. Each is short and succinct. This is an idiosyncratic approach which may horrify purists but also bring a wider readership.
