Apollo and Marpessa

Tonight, we’ll read a myth about a love triangle between a couple of mortals, and the ancient Greek god Apollo. It is taken from “A Book of Myths” written by Jean Lang and published in 1914. The favorite son of Zeus, who was king of gods, Apollo had direct access to the mind of his father and was willing to reveal this knowledge to humans. A divinity beyond human comprehension, he appears both as a beneficial and a wrathful god. — read by V — Listen Ad-Free on Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
