Beskrivelse af The Beloved of the Dawn
Four classical Greek myths retold with unexpected twists by an East German dissident. Franz Fÿhmannâ¿s subversive retellings of four Greek legends were first published in East Germany in 1980. In them, Fÿhmann plumbs the ancient talesâ¿ depths and makes them his own. Attuned to conflict and paradox, he sheds light on the complexities of sex and love, art and beauty, politics and power. In the title story, the love of the goddess Eos for the mortal Tithonos reveals the blessing and curse of transience, while âHera and Zeusâ? probes the divine coupleâ¿s tumultuous relationship and its devastating consequences for a world embroiled in war. Fÿhmannâ¿s unflinching account of Marsyasâ¿ flaying by Apollo has been widely read as a dissident political statement that has lost none of its incisive force. At times charged with sensuality, and at others honed to a keen analytical edge, Fÿhmannâ¿s shimmering prose is matched by Sunandini Banerjeeâ¿s exquisite collages.
