Purporting to be a ""lost"" seventeenth book of the 16-volume
Anthologia Graeca, Book Seventeen uses the themes and images of
ancient mythology to conjure a new way of looking at our modern
world. Gods of all types line the pages of this collection, from
those deities that only operate in our personal spaces-the poet's
companion, the demigod Solitude, as well as the elusive god of
Complicity-to more familiar divinities in unfamiliar roles, such as
Helios shopping in an outdoor market in Paris, or an aging
Aphrodite in a short skirt chatting with visitors to an unfamiliar
city. Pithy and humorous, reverential and impudent, Greg Delanty's
poems showcase the author's keen eye for the mythologies on which
we depend to make sense of our messy, bewildering lives.
