Margaret Atwood is one of my favorite authors. Everything she writes is perfect and this retelling of The Odyssey focusing on Penelope's story is no exception. I enjoyed her take on the type of woman the elusive Penelope was and what happened while her husband was away on his famous journey. Readers who enjoy Greek Mythology and/or feminist retellings should add this title to their reading list immediately.
