004 - The Illness of Damocles

from Prometheus Illbound · host André Gide

Dive into a witty and absurdist reimagining of the Prometheus myth, set in a contemporary world where Zeus is a lavish banker, dispensing wealth with abandon. As Prometheus navigates his tumultuous bond with the eagle that feasts on his liver, he offers profound insights to those he encounters. This tale transcends myth, unfolding as a modern fable that resonates with timeless truths. (Peter Tucker)
