As someone who isn't very familiar with Greek mythology, I always find Miller's books hard to get into. However, once I get into them a little I always end up lovin them. This was a tragic but empowering story & I really enjoyed it. I liked how at the end, Miller gave more context on the background of Galatea. It helped me understand the short story more.
