I’m new here and haven’t read a book in a while. Looking to get into reading. Greek mythology is interesting to me and would like some good recommendations.
Edith Wharton’s ‘Mythology’ is a collection of greek myths. This may seem off, but Thoreaux’s ‘Walden’ has some good mythology connected to naturalism.

I like Stephen Fry’s take. There’s 3 books (with a fourth out later this year).

The Theogony by Hesiod
Metamorphoses by Ovid
Both are easy to find in modern English translations
