Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book of poems collects from a range of sources and influences to explore the theme of the survival of classical gods in the modern world. The author has sought inspiration from paintings, historical events, and even overheard conversations to create a body of work that considers how ancient gods continue to leave their mark on the present day. The poems vary in form, from traditional rhyming stanzas to free verse, from the epic to the intimate. The author blends mythology with personal experience to explore themes of longing, exile, love, loss, and the search for meaning in a world that is often hostile to the divine. The result is a rich and thought-provoking collection that offers fresh insights into the enduring power of myth and the human condition.
