Ancient Greek deities inspire these six twentieth-century New York stories. In "Polyhymnia, Muse of Sacred Song", a would-be priest struggles with his spiritual and aesthetic natures. In "Charity, Goddess of our Day", a young lawyer leaves the family firm to become a zoo fundraiser. In "Hephaestus, God of Newfangled Things", an aged architect reflects on his life's work and the turns it has taken.
