Gods and Mortals Gods and Mortals: New Stories of Hellenic Polytheism

Price: $15.99 | Paperback, 152 Pages | June 2008  |  ISBN: 1449931294
Table of Contents

These are the stories of Hellenismos today. What it feels like to recognize the presence of the gods around you. To discover the mystery of the divine, the power of love, the joy of life, the pangs of grief, the struggle with doubt, the loneliness that comes with belonging to a minority faith. You can read all about ancient Greek religion in hundreds of academic tomes - but none of them will tell you what it's really like, from the inside. The only way to do that is to hear our stories, in our own words. Stories of gods and mortals.
