Breathtaking and abundant, Greek mythology continues to nourish our dreams. Inside this mysterious labyrinth populated by furious, marvelous, and loving creatures, we love to lose ourselves and find ourselves again.
In a single poetic and spirited tale, this richly decorated book recounts the entire mythology from the initial chaos to the end of the world of heroes. In this fabulous odyssey, each flower bears the name of a young beauty too beloved by the gods; each beast is born of a human or divine tragedy; each mountain, each star is attached to a sublime or monstrous destiny, born of tormented passions. The ramparts of Mycenae and Troy, built by gods, still bear the bloody traces of heroic massacres.
A knowing and mischievous storyteller, Pierre Sauzeau unfolds for readers the infinite variety of myths, the poetry of names and the wisdom of these "true lies", which for three thousand years have posed fascinating, tragic and delectable enigmas for us.
