Today marks Arianrhod’s Day, a good moment for myth.

So I’m curious: is there a myth or legend that has quietly shaped the way you love fantasy? One that echoes through the stories you’re drawn to, even if you don’t consciously seek it out. It might be something you encountered early, or something you keep circling back to without quite meaning to.

Stories have long memories, after all. 💙

Book Favorite

"Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides were all constantly responding to, or writing back against, the Homeric poems. The Athenian tragedy that is maybe most deeply engaged with rewriting and recreating “The Odyssey,” is Euripides' “Helen”, a provocative, brainy, funny play about the myth that Helen never went to Troy in the first place—the same myth that is central to HD's brilliant sequence “Helen in Egypt.” I translated the Euripides “Helen,” for a collection of Greek tragedy translations, “The Greek Plays.”"

Movie Favorite

"Perhaps my favorite documentary. In its thematic consistency and sense of narrative it works almost like an ancient myth, but with the added bonus of utter spontaneity—and Mick Jagger in a ridiculously long scarf."
