About this book

Edith Hamilton retells Greek, Roman and Norse myths, from Odysseus's adventures to Odin's attempt to delay the last day of doom.

She aims to keep distinct the different writers the stories come from, such as Hesiod and Ovid. Her introduction questions the popular view that the myths show a world close to nature, and calls that picture a romantic bubble.
