I'm reading Bulfinch's Greek and Roman Mythology but I'm looking something more like an anthology of the mythologies.
Bullfinch was a banker and I'm not gonna trust a banker's interpretation of literature

Greek Myths, by Graves.

Borges liked it.

Also, bankers are better than you, and the fact that they steal your money and you do nothing about it is proof that they really are much better than you.

Porky liked it

Bankers are generally shitty like any bourgeoisie, but sometimes their inner artist is served by the cushy lifestyle. Charles Ives was a nice composer banker

Just because bankers are better than you doesn’t mean they’re better than OP

Bullfinch is good. If you want to go all out, read Groate.
