OLDER FICTION
Gray, Laurie

Just Myrto

(4) YA When Myrto's father dies, she finds herself betrothed to Socrates, the famous Greek philosopher. The narrative slowly builds as Myrto transforms from young woman to wife, mother, and something of a philosopher herself. Those interested in ancient Greek civilization and philosophy will enjoy the historical setting; the heavy philosophical bent may limit the story's appeal.
