Book excerpt: Author Robert Penn Warren's fiction captures centuries worth of mythology and folklore from all across the globe--from Hebrew, Norse, Roman and Caribbean mythology, to Arthurian legends.

The fascinating ways, both blatant and obscure, that Warren incorporates religious practices and ancient legends into his early works are revealed.
