Description

A Miscellany of Muses? There are nine of them altogether and they all make an appearance in this volume.

Many readers will remember Erato and Calliope from their previous appearances in Conversations with a Muse.

Here they are again, accompanied by their sisters: Melpomene the moaner, Polyhymnia the professional, unhappy Clio, dancing Terpsichore, astral Urania, Thalia the comic and Euterpe the flautist.

The verses are designed to be read as one continuous story, although many of the poems stand on their own.

If you have ever wondered how a famous Swedish furnishings company came by its name, why magnets never wear out, or how stardust is formed, then look no further.

Answers, of a sort, to these and other questions, are to be found here. One does not need to have read the previous volume to enjoy this book.

However, those who know Conversations with a Muse will meet old friends in new situations.

Hopefully the reacquaintance will be a happy one!
