I seem to have descended into an obsession with ancient Greece
It started when I picked up Ilium by Dan Simmons. My son's history class had started studing ancient Greece so he and I picked up the Iliad to read together. Now I'm reading "Sailing the Wine Dark Sea: Why the Greeks Matter" by Thomas Cahill and I'm still working my way through the sequel to Ilium, Olympos.

1. Have you ever been to Greece
Seems like it would be a great time for you to travel there and see all the things you're reading about.
