I love reading old myths and legends, but I wonder with this particular translation if the translator was a little too eager to keep all of the poetic elements as some segments were very convoluted. Other wise a good story, and a fun little read. ( ) The most detailed presentation of this episode from the adventures of Jason and the Argonauts that I've read, and I enjoyed it, though I did have a hard (impossible) time keeping the various Argonauts straight (some of the names are spelled differently than I've seen them before -- "Hera" is "Here," etc.) This edition is an extract from E.V. Rieu's translation, The Voyage of Argo , and readers who are unfamiliar with the story of Jason and his adventures may enjoy this more with a little background information. Number 18 in Penguin's Little Black Classic series. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
