Ladies: Retold tales of goddesses and heroines. BORIS AND DORIS VALLEJO. [ CİLTLİ ŞÖMİZLİ ], A Roc Book, USA, 1996

Yayıncısının özgün şömizli cildinde, çok temiz durumda, 30x25 cm, 186 sayfa, renkli resimli. İngilizce. In Ladies' ten signature paintings and numerous drawings, Boris Vallejo depicts the magic time when goddesses roamed the earth; they are the perfect accompaniment to Doris Vallejo's poetic and chilling retelling of ten classic tales. This is myth transfigured by a modern sensibility: retelling mythic tales from the points of view of the goddesses, heroines, sorceresses, princesses, wives, and daughters. Readers see Persephone, condemned by a god's adoration to live six months of each year in the kingdom of death; the Gorgon, a great beauty transformed into monstrosity by her own longing to be loved; Apollo's mortal bride, Coronis, left behind each time her godly husband returned to the heavens; and Pandora, who discovered knowledge no mortal was meant to have and paid the price.
