Immersive journey through ancient Greece's mythical landscapes.

Excellent translation of classics.
Excellent. Paper thin but ok. Translation generally excellent. Great value.

Classic
Can’t go wrong with the old classic. The only thing for some reason the pages were stuck together and they are so thin it’s easy to skip a page that’s stuck.

edição
O livro, anunciado como uma edição de luxo, nao é mais do que uma edição em capa dura bastante simples. Nao se deram ao trabalho de plastificar ou envernizar a capa do livro. O livro chegou com uma batida na lombada (na quina) que descascou o papel da capa!Compro muitos livros na Amazon, que reputo como uma empresa seria, mas dizer que isto é uma" edição de luxo ", é uma inverdade. Ediçoes como os livros da Martin Claret, Antophagica, Companhia das Letras e outras, sao mesmo, algumas delas, ediçoes de luxo, livros para ler, guardar, colecionar,mas nao este que comprei agora.Como ainda não li esta edição, espero mesmo que a tradução seja tao esmerada como diz a Amazon.De ultimas, dou valor a uma edição caprichada porque considero que os livros fazem parte das nossas historias de vida, então o CONTEUDO e a apresentação dever ser os melhores!
