Diomedeid - Paperback

by Alexander D. Graham (Author)

Sacker of Thebes and Troy, Diomedes was one of the greatest heroes to feature in Greek and Roman mythology. The wise and brutal son of Tydeus slaughtered men and wounded gods. But in the end, the might of Venus proved too much.

This selection of poems charts Diomedes' post-Iliadic feats and exploits as he struggles to find his place in the world, pursued by the bitter hatred of a goddess.
