- Arts
White Ash Flies is an audible, on-line anthology drawn from that abiding and rich sea of content, the public domain. I’ll select and serialize recordings of myself reading my favorite poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and correspondence, sacred and profane, in as heterogeneous a mix as I can passably manage. I’ll also be sharing original content from time to time.

White Ash Flies presents The Sorrows of Niobe, from Book 6 of Ovid’s Metamorphoses, published in 8 CE, in which the goddess Latona makes Niobe pay dearly for her presumption, just as in the preceding story, Arachne was punished by Minerva for her presumption: surpassing the goddess in a weaving competition.
