The bestselling author of The Art of Pilgrimage and Once and Future Myths presents a selection of mind-bending brain teasers.
Riddles by any name—enigmas, conundrum, word puzzles, teasers—have been posed since ancient times to test people's wit and stretch their imaginations. Mythologist and adventurer Phil Cousineau resurrects this lost art form in A World Treasury of Riddles. Drawing from world literature, history, myth, and folklore, Cousineau has created a one-of-a-kind book that presents riddles from ancient Greece to the Ozarks, from Leonardo da Vinci to Lewis Carroll, and more.
