I have to say, I definitely enjoyed reading this more than I did The Penelopiad. Having been familiar with the Oedipus myth (who isn’t?) the way Haynes adapted it and re-told it was quite interesting. I may not have completely understood some parts of it, especially the plot hole? (Can we call it a plot hole if the king ordered to get rid of ‘his’ son who may or may not have been Oedipus?)
I loved the ownership Joscasta had over her own fate, and how she took control of her life. She is a remarkable character, who often gets sidelined in the myth, with Oedipus almost always taking centre stage.
