Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Golden Age" by Kenneth Grahame is a collection of reminiscences first published in 1895. These childhood memories present a world where children wage perpetual warfare against adults—"Olympians" who have forgotten what it feels like to be young. Through imagery rooted in Greek mythology, Grahame captures the perspective of children navigating their relationships with the grown-up world around them. Widely praised upon publication, this pioneering work explores themes that would later influence authors like J.M. Barrie.
