The classic tragedy “Prometheus Bound” as retold through a hazy mist of alcohol abuse, identity crisis and depression–with just enough drugs, sex and wry humor to make that prospect entertaining. Having defied the will of almighty Zeus, the titan Prometheus finds himself facing the bitter fallout of his life decisions. It seemed like a good idea at the time . . . More than just a modern reimagining, Prometheus on the Rocks uses mythology as a departure point to explore the experience of personality, and the individual’s relationship to Society. Recommended for Classics nerds with substance abuse problems, substance abuse nerds with a Classics problem, classists who have problems with the substantial, and problem folk who are substantially classy.

D.G. Barrett is a lovably feckless dilettante enamored of excessive wordiness and grimly imaginative flights of fancy. He writes about optimistic depression, pessimistic idealism, joyful disappointment, and bitter resilience. Recommended for well mannered pseudo-intellectuals, the sarcastically inclined, and those who like gritty fairy tales about the human condition.
