«El vellocino de oro» is the historical novel by Robert Graves, published by Planeta in paperback (495 pages, in Spanish).
Jason and the Argonauts, with a crew of heroes such as Heracles, Atalanta or Orpheus, cross legendary seas in search of the Golden Fleece. Graves novelizes the myth with erudition and an epic tone: gods, trials and battles, and a princess, Medea, whose role proves decisive for the expedition.
The Spanish translation, signed by Lucía Graves, comes from the English original 'The Golden Fleece' (1944). The novel belongs to the 'Historical novel' collection (No. 319).
A work for readers of historical fiction and Greek mythology, interested in erudite recreations of the classical world.
Robert Ranke Graves, whose second name is sometimes given as von Ranke, was an English poet, novelist and critic. His father was Alfred Perceval Graves, a celebrated Irish poet and figure in the Gaelic revival; they were both Celticists and students of Irish mythology.
