Summary |
This book casts a gimlet eye on the real world of mythology. And in his irreverent style, O'Brien recounts more than 100 classic myths from Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Japanese, and other cultures. While each version is authentic in terms of facts, this creative take on the originals presents the stories in a whole new light. |
