It comes complete with a struggling playwright (a little-known bloke called Aristophanes), excess cavorting, an assortment of divinities, the odd Amazon and some truly execrable poetry. Fans of Kalix, here you will find no laudanum but a lot of drinking. No carnage, but plenty of intrigue and danger. And humour (of course). And a love story. And a few very troublesome phalluses.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePraise for Martin Millar\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e'These mortals do keep on writing' - \u003ci\u003eThe Goddess Athena \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e'It's not a bad book, I suppose.' - \u003ci\u003eThe Poet Luxos (\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003ewho might have given a more enthusiastic quote if Martin had let him write an introduction to the book LIKE HE PROMISED but unfortunately Martin is a prosaic soul with no true appreciation of lyric poetry)\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e'Is there any more wine?' - \u003ci\u003eAristophanes\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47901048144030,"sku":"ING-9780349407142","price":29.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780349407142.jpg?v=1782352504","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780349407142","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
