MYTHOS Queer Legends

of Greek Gods and Heroes

Now Available!

Linda Ray Larson's Second Book is now available!

 

MYTHOS: Queer Legends of Greek Gods and Heroes

is a concise, easy to read and lavishly illustrated book

featuring stories of male lovers in Greek mythology.

 

Through narrative and more than 50 original full-color illustrations, MYTHOS explores time honored tales of gods and heroes with homo-erotic themes.

 

Some myths are well-known, such as Zeus and Ganymede

and Apollo and Hyacinthus. More obscure myths include

the many lovers of Heracles, and the love story of Theseus

and Pirithous. Also profiled are the loves of Adonis, Hermes, Pan, Dionysus, Orpheus and many others.

 

MYTHOS is Book II in the Written in Stone series; a collection

of illustrated books celebrating the lives of LGBTQ people

in history. Like THE CUPBEARERS (Book I), MYTHOS is

a focused segment of a much broader topic. The Written in Stone mission helps make this information mainstream through a series of short illustrated books.
