The Ancient Greek heroes…

For centuries they’ve kept readers enthralled. Just peek into any book of the Greek myths and you’ll find stories straining at the seams with sword-swishers and shield-shakers: from Herakles to Perseus, from Theseus to Bellerophon … But the funny thing is, they’re always young men, dashing, strong and athletic, aren’t they? Able to fight and sail and command others, and showered with gifts from the gods to help them on their quests.
But is that really what a being a hero is all about? And, speaking for the Hydra, Medusa, the Minotaur and Chimera, what about the monsters they left dead in their wake?

My name is Julia…
