Erskine,John
Venus : The Lonely Goddess
New York: William Morrow 1949 Book. Illus. by Warren Chappell. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st US Ed. "A deliciously provocative tale . Venus was a late-comer among the Olympian gods and her origins were shrouded in mystery. Some said she had risen from the sea but there was no certainty about it. As the young wife of Vulcan she came to as human a family of gods as you're likely to meet. Enjoying their transitory godhead they were little interested in such weighty matters as Progress and Reform and among then Vulcan was the only one who ever did any work. Venus started out as an exemplary daughter-in-law - ignoring Juno's feline suspicion of her youth and beauty; meeting Jupiter's double entendres with trusting innocence; and inspiring friendship in the roguish heart of Mars.Here are polished wit and a wicked use of humor for ulterior motives - Ambrosia sprinkled with Attic salt" 155p. illus.Coles bookstore stamp on ffep.Dj now in protective seeve/.
