Prometheus Illbound
Published in 1899, 'Prometheus Illbound' by André Gide presents a contemporary retelling of the Prometheus myth, where Zeus is depicted as a wealthy banker distributing fortune. The narrative adopts a witty and absurdist tone, exploring Prometheus' troubled relationship with his liver-devouring eagle, which serves as a lens for understanding the characters he meets. This work is notable for its fable-like quality, blending myth with modern themes of wealth and suffering.
