Reviews

Professor Kahane is the Scheherazade of our days: a brilliant storyteller himself, he has woven together a theoretically sophisticated fabric of novel and epic that speaks adroitly of antiquity but interfaces engagingly with modernity. -- Paul Cartledge, Emeritus A.G. Leventis Professor of Greek Culture, University of Cambridge, UK
