The Misunderstood Monsters of Greek Mythology by Anastasia Tentokali, Beetroot Design Group, Fanis Skourtis
I feel like it isn’t fair to rate this, because the translation just isn’t doing it justice. I’m sure in the original Greek, the text is just as enchanting as the imagery but it’s obvious that the translation has forfeited the poetic nature of this book.
The illustrations are so beautiful and intriguing, and the paper and binding itself is just what I’ve always wanted in a book but I just wish I knew Greek so I could truly enjoy this series of poems on the misunderstood Greek monsters.
