Sisyphus: An Operatic Fable is a book written by Robert Calverley Trevelyan in 1908. The book is a retelling of the myth of Sisyphus, the king who was punished by the gods to roll a boulder up a hill only to have it roll back down again for all eternity. In this version, Sisyphus is portrayed as a tragic hero who struggles with his fate and the cruelty of the gods. The book is written in the form of an opera, with lyrics and music included. It is a unique and imaginative retelling of the myth, with themes of fate, free will, and the struggle for meaning and purpose in life. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in mythology, opera, or the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
