Mickelsson's Ghosts: A NovelGardner, John

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"This is Gardner's fifth book, and it should enhance his already well-established literary reputation....It should be especially interesting to freshmen and sophomores reading the three ancient epics in world literature courses. A must for all but the smallest libraries."
Choice, November 1973
Review:"Gardner has distilled the various versions of the myth of the Golden Fleece into a powerful. haunting [book] that reads like a superb prose translation of a primitive epic. Daringly, the author uses his contemporary self as the narrator; at times this device results in similes of calculated dissonance. As in 'Grendel', Gardner uses a familiar past to illustrate and inform the present. One can compare this barbarically splendid re-creation only to the best works of Robert Graves or to certain major poems of Robinson Jeffers. Like those works, Gardner's consistently challenges and rewards the reader."
