Golden Apple
—a book about contemporary Greek Mythology
This book celebrates the Greek myths, the gods and goddesses and recreates the connection between modern day and old morals. Golden Apple expressed the gods and goddesses not as poetic fantasy but as contemporary figures in our lives. I believe once we make connection between the old Greek myth and our selves, we become open to dimensions in the stories of the gods which reveal new depths in them, new power and meaning.
