Circe by Madeline Miller
The Greek goddess Circe gets her own retelling in Madeline Miller’s second novel, which won the 2019 Indie Choice Award and made the shortlist for the Women’s Prize for Fiction. “Circe is very pleasurable to read, combining lively versions of familiar tales and snippets of other, related standards with a highly psychologized, redemptive and ultimately exculpatory account of the protagonist herself,” writes the New York Times Book Review.
