Bleh. I couldn't make it past the first 100 pages. The author had no direction on this book. Is it about Theseus? Brutus? Phaedra? It jumps from Ancient Greece to 20th century Europe and back with no discernible connections. I didn't care about finding out what those connections were because I was too bogged down with characters and trying to figure out what the heck was going on.

I'm college-educated, a teacher, a mythology lover, and a pretty smart cookie, but this book confused the tar out of me. Bleh, bleh, bleeeeeeeeh!
