lilifaun's review against another edition

I know greek mythology is full sexual assault, but when I read the back where it said the woman stood central in this book. I did not expect ther would be a focus on the tales of strong woman and not that there would be sexual assault on almost every page (or so it felt like)

challenging sad slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? N/A
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.0

A retelling only in the perspective of teller, not actually a restructuring of mythos. The level of speech fluctuates constantly between high-speech and common, sometimes by the same character mid-sentence.
