Aphrodite's Blessings: Love Stories from the Greek Myths

202 pp. | Atheneum | January, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-689-84377-1 $$16.00
(3) YA Atalanta loses a race and wins a suitor; Andromeda escapes being sacrificed when Perseus rescues her; Psyche loses her husband Eros through mistrust and regains him through suffering and effort. These familiar Greek myths are fleshed out with such great attention to characterization and motivation that they come to life as gripping romances, thoroughly accessible to modern readers.
