Ideal for serious readers and mythology enthusiasts, this Penguin edition is a top-ranked bestseller in folklore and ancient history, offering an authoritative and immersive exploration of Western literary foundations. ## Description The definitive and comprehensive edition of Robert Graves's classic retelling of the Greek myths by the James Tait Memorial Prize-winning author 'Icarus disobeyed his father's instructions and began soaring towards the sun, rejoiced by the lift of his great sweeping wings. Presently, when Daedalus looked over his shoulder, he could no longer see Icarus; but scattered feathers floated on the waves below...' These are the greatest stories ever told - the labours of Hercules, the voyage of the Argonauts, Theseus and the minotaur, Midas and his golden touch, the Trojan War and Odysseus's journey home - brought together into one epic and unforgettable story. Ideal for the first time reader, it can be read as a single page-turning narrative, while full commentaries as well as a comprehensive index of names make it equally valuable for anyone seeking an authoritative and detailed account of the spectacular stories that make up the bedrock of Western literature. The Greek Myths is a classic among classics, a treasure trove of extraordinary tales and a masterful work of literature in its own right. ' Among the most generous, self-willed, unseemly and brilliant writers of our century' New York Times Review: 'The Greek Myths' Robert Graves - I would highly reccommend this book to anyone interested in Classical Mythology; it is comprehensive and is very easy to use. You can use the references to find a specific myth, if you have a particular interest, or read it as an extentended collection of the stories. It contains all of the Greek myths together, and told very well. I would, however, caution academic or literary users, as if you need to know the sources for each myth Graves does not always reference them. For this kind of use, I would reccommend Pierre Grimal's 'Dictionary of Classical Mythology'. The book also contains a map of the Greek world and map showing sites mentioned in the text, helping you visualize and understand the relative geographies of the myths. I really like this book, and after buying my own copy bought one for a friend. A must for lovers of mythology. :D Review: Very Good - A comprehensive retelling of the major Greek myths. I am very pleased to have it in my Kindle library. ## Features - The Greek Myths: The Complete and Definitive Edition - Product type: ABIS BOOK - Brand: Penguin ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 9,087 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 22 in Greek & Roman 29 in Folklore (Books) 58 in Ancient & Classical History Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 1,444 Reviews | ## Images ![The Greek Myths: The Complete and Definitive Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/812jpPDqnBL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'The Greek Myths' Robert Graves *by D***E on 1 May 2012* I would highly reccommend this book to anyone interested in Classical Mythology; it is comprehensive and is very easy to use.
