A college student named Eustace Bright gathers children at Tanglewood in Massachusetts to retell ancient Greek myths in his own way. From Perseus and Medusa to King Midas's golden touch, from Pandora's fateful box to Bellerophon's battle with the Chimera, these classic tales are reimagined for young readers. Hawthorne strips away what he called the "cold moonshine" of classical mythology, transforming timeless legends into stories children of his era could embrace.
