Orpheus & Company Contemporary Poems on Greek Mythology

"By gathering such a talented range of poets, all of them drawn to reinvestigate the myths, DeNicola has created a diversified whole which mirrors the multivocality of the myths themselves. Furthermore, they indicate a sort of group necessity, a soulful and imaginative investigation of what shape 20th century poetics can, or must, give to these myths. Readers...who are unfamiliar with the Greek myths will find in this collection a reason to go back and read them. And that perhaps is DeNicola's greatest achievement."DeNicola, Deborah is the author of 'Orpheus & Company Contemporary Poems on Greek Mythology', published 1999 under ISBN 9780874519181 and ISBN 0874519187.
