Transferring material from sites seems to bring with it masses of random, stowaway code that changes font size, removes paragraph breaks, jams the text into narrow-spaced lines. It&#8217;s a nuisance. But anyhow, here we are at last, with [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tbrbooks.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2325550&amp;post=49&amp;subd=tbrbooks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I don’t remember when I first became aware of her existence but it was well before I had actually experienced any real Greek mythology, definitely before I’d read The Iliad. It’s fascinating to me how literary characters [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tbrbooks.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2325550&amp;post=46&amp;subd=tbrbooks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
