Me faltaron personajes femeninos que no giraran en torno a los protagonistas, pero eso ya no es culpa de la autora, simplemente no hay muchos porque así es la mitología. Cuando lea Circe tendré lo que me faltó aquí.
En general, un libro muy triste cargado de mitología y de referencias muy extensas a los ornamentos, política y costumbres de la época. Tedioso a ratos pero al final te deja con un buen sabor de boca (en parte). Buena lectura.

Das Ende war aber echt traurig und es hätte vermieden werden können 😩😢
Ich muss allerdings sagen, dass der schöne Schreibstil von Madeline Miller in der deutschen Übersetzung leider oft nicht so gut rüberkommt, manchmal schon, aber oft leider nicht 🙁
Aber trotzdem ein super Buch und ich werde es bestimmt nochmal lesen 😄
