When Canadian classicist Harlow Donne lands a coveted post at Oxford University, he expects dusty fragments and quiet breakthroughs. Instead, deep in the Bodleian Library, he discovers an unknown epic: The Psoad, a poem narrated by Psoas, an ordinary man swept up in the machinery of legend.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eAs Harlow translates and annotates the text for his daughter, Helen, the ancient world begins to speak back to the present. What unfolds is a layered, moving story about myth and memory, storytelling and truth, and the private costs behind public histories—shot through with homesickness, ambition, love and grief.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003ePerfect for readers drawn to Greek mythology retellings, historical fiction with Oxford academia, and thoughtful, formally inventive novels.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eFollow the song into this striking new vision of a foundational myth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dear Village","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52731114520852,"sku":"9781923058811","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6460\/0596\/files\/9781923058811_1.jpg?v=1782966425","url":"https:\/\/dearvillage.com.au\/products\/son-of-nobody","provider":"Dear Village","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
