Editorial Reviews

Loosely based on Hesiod's Theogeny, Maxwell I. Gold's anOther Mythology deconstructs traditional mythic narratives and tropes in a defiantly transgressive take on cosmic origin stories. Indeed, the Muses must have conferred Hesiod's kingly scepter of authority to Gold, and he uses it wisely. Gold fearlessly flings open closet doors, unveils dark deceptions, and reshapes the cosmos to unshackle the stars. A stunning reclamation of Greek myth. -Carina Bissett, award-winning editor of Shadow Atlas: Dark Landscapes of the Americas

"Maxwell I. Gold's poetry pulls from the heart and bleeds truth onto the page." -Michael Bailey, multi-award-winning author and editor.
