Brand: Lyra
Lyra Helikon was a French author and poet who lived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His real name was Désiré Deletang (1865-1941). He wrote under the pseudonym Lyra Helikon, which means 'lyre of Helicon' in Greek. This homage to the mountain in Greece, which was believed to be the dwelling place of the Muses, reflected his passion for Greece and mythology. Helikon's poetry is characterized by its romantic and mystical themes, often exploring the relationship between mortals and the divine. Some of his best-known works include "Le Livre de Thule" ("The Book of Thule"), "Le Tombeau dans la Montagne" ("The Tomb in the Mountain"), and "Le Chant du Destin" ("The Song of Destiny").
