A trio of tales offering an eye-opening alternative view of ancient
Greece's literary culture.
A fascinating counterpoint to the monumental epics of ancient
Greece, Greek Fiction features three novelistic works written
between the first and fourth centuries AD. Chariton's
"Callirhoe"-perhaps the first novel ever written-is the stirring
tale of two star-crossed lovers who are torn apart when Callirhoe
is kidnapped and sold into slavery. Longus's "Daphnis and Chloe"
tells the story of a boy and girl-both abandoned at birth-who grow
up to fall in love and battle pirates. "Letters of Chion" is an
early thriller about tyranny and political assassination. Together
these works open a welcome window onto ancient Greece's
little-explored legacy of prose fiction.
