What is the name of the Greek veiling book you read?

It's called Aphrodite's Tortoise: The Veiled Woman of Ancient Greece! I'm not a hellenist so you can take my assessment with a grain of salt, but I really enjoyed it - the methodological grounding is compelling and there's some really lovely close readings of the art and texts.
