About This Book

The story of Atlas and Heracles.

Atlas knows how it feels to carry the weight of the world; but why, he asks himself, does it have to be carried at all? In Weight—visionary and inventive, yet completely believable and relevant to the questions we ask ourselves every day—Winterson's skill in turning the familiar on its head to show us a different truth is put to stunning effect.
