Rick Garnett

I, Paris

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Paris and Helen; more than a romance, this book depicts the adventures and inner life of Paris, prince of Troy, a complex figure in a world of stark simplicity, moving through passion, betrayal, and violence to a stunning finale. Through interpolation of gripping action scenes, tender vignettes, and vivid poetic dialogue, the book gives new depth and richness to the classic story of Paris, Helen of Troy, and the war their stolen love engendered.

Autorenporträt

Rick Garnett, a retired lawyer, graduated from Swarthmore College in 1965 with a degree in Classical Greek. In the ensuing 42 years, while practicing law in Alaska and Arizona, he continued to indulge his love for the classics by almost daily readings in the original Latin or Greek. His previous writing experience includes two youthful summers as a newspaper reporter and columnist in Opelousas, Louisiana, occasional sonnets, and many legal briefs and memoranda, sometimes featuring such gems as "mutatis mutandis" and "Penelope's Web". This is his first novel. In 2006-2007 Mr Garnett spent a year teaching Latin at a local charter school, a time he views as a high point. His other interests include blues jams, tennis, and an endless series of online chess games with his son-in-law. Mr Garnett and his wife Catherine, parents of four and grandparents of ten, divide their time among Scottsdale and Bisbee, Arizona, and visits to offspring in Boston and South Bend.
