Product Information

This outstanding collection brings together the novelist and scholar Rex Warner's knack for spellbinding storytelling with Edward Gorey's inimitable talent as an illustrator in a memorable modern recounting of the most beloved myths of ancient Greece. Writing in a relaxed and winning colloquial style, Warner vividly recreates the classic stories of Jason and the Argonauts and Theseus and the Minotaur, among many others, while Gorey's quirky pen-and-ink sketches offer a visual interpretation of these great myths in the understated but brilliantly suggestive style that has gained him admirers throughout the world. These tales cover the range of Greek mythology, including the creation story of Deucalion and Pyrrha, the heroic adventures of Perseus, the fall of Icarus, Cupid and Psyche's tale of love, and the tragic history of Oedipus and Thebes." Men and Gods" is an essential and delightful book with which to discover some of the key stories of world literature.

Reviews
"In first place, the stories are beautiful and satisfying in themselves. In the second place, they have deeply affected our own literature." Rex Warner "Shakespeare, Shelley, Tennyson and many others got their knowledge of Greek mythology from the often ironicaland always sophisticatednarratives of Ovid…Detail after detail fixes these myths in the memory…The Golden Age of Greece is dim today, but in Gods and Men the golden apples still shine upon the bough." The New York Times "Rex Warner retells thirty-eight famous myths of ancient Greece that ought to be the intellectual heritage of all the young." The New York Times "The British critic V. S. Pritchett once described Mr. Warner as 'the only outstanding novelist of ideas whom the decade of ideas produced.'"
