Have you ever wanted to read classical literature, but didn’t quite know how to begin? Then you are in the right place!
On this page you will find my all my recommendations for ancient books and authors. And I include some fun information on Classics in the modern world!
First, let’s talk about definitions.

Two of my posts deal with J. Maya’s mythology-themed pop songs.
