Gods and Mortals: Modern Poems on Classical Myths Hardcover - 2001
by Nina Kossman; Nina Kossman (Editor)
For centuries, poets have looked into the mirror of classical myth to show the ways our emotional lives are reflected in the ancient stories of heroism, hubris, transformation, and loss. Now comes the first anthology to gather over 300 myth-inspired, 20th-century poems from around the world.
First line
i am used to the heft of it sitting against my rib, used to the ridges of forest, used to the way my thumb slips into the sea as i pull it tight.
