Greek Gods in Love

The glittering mythology resonates with Eros, love in all its astounding variety - devotional, perfidious, sunny, dark, frenzied, serene, lusty, uncanny, earthy, twisty and sometimes hilarious. We relish these tales in all their splendour and antic humour and offer an inspired storyteller's fresh version of the old, old mythical magic.

Above them all reigned Zeus. The ancients enjoyed his constant adultery, launched after a 300-year honeymoon with his sister-wife Hera. His affairs were often weird and fanciful, an equal opportunity seducer among goddesses, nymphs and mortals.
