Apollodorus Epit. E.1.12-14

Anthony Marra. "The Last Flight of Daedalus." Short story. Found in XO Orpheus: 50 New Myths. Pemguin Books. New York: 2013.

In XO Orpheus: 50 New Myths, the short story is introduced as follows: "The villagers watched as he touched down on the sand. Shoulder-sore, sun-pink, his arms caged in wooden shelves of feathers, he was not the harpy, not the geryon they had feared. He wore his beard in the style of Minos."
