Book excerpt: A well illustrated and highly detailed study of the Alexander Mosaic which once furnished the floor of the House of the Faun in Pompeii. Moreno discusses the background to the mosaic, speculating on which battle may have been depicted, when the piece was produced and by which artist. The composition of the scene, the figures portrayed and the artistic style and conventions are discussed in detail and other works of art are consulted in Moreno's attempt to link the mosaic with the work of the artist Apelles. Includes many close-ups of the mosaic in colour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Apelles, a translator of ancient texts, has made an unsettling discovery: a manuscript that has languished for years, written in a language that only he speaks. Moving back and forth between the scholar and his text, from a lone man in a labyrinthine archive to a pair of beautiful young Indian lovers in an unspoiled and snowy woodland, David Treuer weaves together two love stories. Enthralling and suspenseful, The Translation of Dr. Apelles dares to redefine the Native American novel.
