Sticktap to sineala again: The Flowers of Adonis ebook is temporarily free on Amazon US, UK, and Canada at least, so check your local.

Flowers is a 1969 adult (i.e. added sex and pessimism) novel told from the perspectives of about a dozen supporting characters who encounter Alkibiades, the Athenian golden boy who rebooted the Peloponnesian War and generally fucked about. It's not my favourite novel about him or the period, being rather uncritically admiring (did you know "Alkibiades" is Greek for 'haters gonna hate'? True fact), but free is free.

title: the flowers of adonis
