Description:
Trips to the Moon collects together three works by the Assyrian master of rhetoric and satire, Lucian of Samosata. The works are regarded as some of the first novels in western civilization, including some of the earliest examples of science fiction. He is witty and derisive and parodies the work of Homer as well as lowbrow popular tales of his time.
