learn more about Greek mythology

so i read somewhere about this river in hades called lethe which would cause the people who drank from it to forget their life on earth. that could wind up having a really interesting connection if i have to write something involving symbolism somewhere down the line…

so far, my favorite figures in greek mythology that I have come across are Icarus, Persephone, Demeter, dionysus, Orpheus, Eurydice, the sirens, and the creature known as the Chimera. I love when its referenced in modern literature or song lyrics, it just adds so much more passion to the situation being discribed.
