Zeus the Loose

0/5 ( ratings)

Zeus the Loose is essentially a man stumbling through the metaphorical alleyway of Greek Mythology, uncovering all of the dark corners and humorous images along the way. It explores war, death, family, love, marriage, creation, politics, divorce, humiliation, men turning into tortoises, ecstatic castration and even a penis under the sea. Point is, this book is a no holds-barred investigation into the relationships between each of the Olympian Gods and their respective roles in human affairs. You could take a completely clean and scholarly approach to learning about the extramarital activities of Zeus, or the booze-cruise raves of Dionysus, but where's the fun in that? At heart, this book is a guide to what the fantasy books leave out about Greek Mythology, written to make the journey to understanding more humorous and enjoyable, rather than reverential. Tiptoeing around subjects will not happen in this book, I promise. You won't need to 'hmm' and stroke your beard, rather drop your digestive in your tea a few times. If you're expecting a cheerful stroll through the gardens of Mount Olympus, turn back now, because we will trudge through the sweaty, seedy red light district of Olympus without a moments notice. This book is meant not just to challenge what YOU think about the Gods, but rather what EVERYBODY thinks about them.
