Title: the last of the wine
Review: mary renault does a brilliant job of painting Athens as the powerful,fragile center of the ancient world at the time of Socrates and the awful beginning of the peloponnesian wars. We meet pericles.the stoic general and his famous love, aspasia, and follow the incredible path taken by alcibiades, one of the blinding stars of history. The slow descent of athens from its zenith,to defeat by the spartans tragic years later is riveting to the last word. A timeless classic.
