This is a story of the old Greek Mythology written by the Greek poet, Ovid. I like this story. It has the kind of classical English translation but it is comprehensible. A story that depicts the love of a father towards his son, and some issues and conflicts that leads to tragedy. A good story to be told to the kids before they go to bed I guess? They will surely fall asleep faster.
Anyway, the gist of the story itself was definitely attracting me because of the plot and the theme expressed in the story could actually be derived through the motifs that it highlighted. As you can see from the painting I attached together with this post, there is Icarus in falling in the sea right in front of the ship (just a few yards away) with no one really cares of what had happened.
