Book review : The Women of Greek Mythology

 Book review :

Greek mythology is a collection of stories that explain the workings of the world, often through the adventures of gods and heroes. 

Each chapter started off with a short story or a scene about the female in spotlight, followed by the references in various literature from the past and a quick analysis. I was surprised to see how different texts showed different versions of the same female.

Some stories that tells the origins and adventures of gods, goddesses, heroes, and monsters. Many of these stories are still enjoyed today as part of popular culture. The author has put light on the Themes that often appear in Greek mythology which  include courage, love, betrayal, violence, and loss. These themes can be seen in many different contexts throughout the myths, lending them a richness and depth that makes them especially interesting to study.

The author has well researched and put forth many women of Greek Mythology and their varied perspectives and strong personality that changed many lives at that time and is a source of inspiration and motivation nowadays. To recollect all those remarkable stories and compiled in one book seems bit less. I am looking forward to learn about more stories from the author and inculcate the deep insight layed in certain measures in my life too.
