Rikke's Reviews > The Fall of Icarus
The Fall of Icarus (Penguin Little Black Classics, #73)

The Icarus myth is in fact rather short and only make up a small portion of this book.
The rest of the book consists of excerpts from Ovid's Metamorphoses which I've never read in its entirety � making this volume a bit of a mess.
Nevertheless, I've always loved the myth of Icarus; his very human need for more, throwing caution to the wind and soaring up towards the sun. It's hubris at its purest.
