ChimeraA National Book Award winner, this bawdy, comic trio of novellas finds John Barth injecting his signature wit into three tales many times told: that of Scheherazade, storyteller of the Thousand and One Nights; of Perseus, slayer of Medusa; and of Bellerophon, rider of Pegasus and slayer of the Chimera. Chimera presents these ancient stories with a contemporary twist, blending Barth's innovative storytelling with the timeless allure of mythology.
