I love Miller’s style, voice, and the way she brings myths to life. I’m a sucker for a queer, feminist retelling. She’s one of my top two favorite fiction writers. I was able to read this in one sitting, which was moving and refreshing all at once, but I’d love to see a collection of short stories like this.

Madeline Miller is really out here cancelling greek deities like she’s the Jameela Jamil of Athens

WOW. Wat een heftig en geweldig verhaal. Echt een aanrader. Met soms creepy illustraties maar vaak ook mooi en zoals ze in het Engels zeggen, haunting.
