“Circe” by Madeline Miller

📕 Edition: Audiobook

I actually read this back in April...🫣 This was a mesmerizing journey through the life of a seemingly insignificant figure in Greek mythology who rises to astonishing power. Miller's lyrical prose and deep understanding of Greek mythology bring Circe's story to life, making her a complex and relatable character. The novel beautifully explores themes of identity, love, and the struggle for independence in a world dominated by gods and men. As Circe experiments with her witchcraft, the narrative brims with magic and wonder. A captivating tale of transformation and self-discovery, "Circe" is a literary gem that reimagines a classic myth with grace and depth.
