Synopsis

This book is an epic poem that weaves a tale of the mythic love between the goat-legged God Silenus and the nymph Syrinx. With its origins in ancient Greek myth, the author reimagines the characters of Silenus and Syrinx in all their divine glory and tragic downfall. The book presents a beautifully written and deeply moving narrative, exploring the themes of love, loss, and the destructive nature of jealousy. Through Silenus's journey of despair and redemption, the book offers insights into the human condition, the inevitability of fate, and the indomitable power of love.

Présentation de l'éditeur

SlLENUS, radiant as a summer morn, Smiling exultant in the might of youth, Loved of the loveliest, Syrinx ;in her grace Surpassing swallows turning on the wing At even over water brimmed with gold. And Syrinx loved Silenus. Never yet Until he loved her had the nymph been moved By other than the love of tranquil streams ;T he witchery of birds ;flowers, and the growth Of woodlands wild, and woodland happiness.
