Rezension

Circe gives us a feminist slant on the Odyssey . Miller makes these age-old texts thrum with contemporary relevance . An airy delight, a novel to be gobbled greedily in a single sitting Observer

In Circe, Madeleine Miller tells a well-known myth from the point of view of a woman who has often been misunderstood. Circe is no longer just a strange witch in a man's story – here, she becomes the main character. Miller shows her as strong, smart, sometimes lonely, and very human. What makes the story especially exciting is how Circe changes over time. At first, she is unsure of herself. Later, she becomes brave and independent. Her relationships with Odysseus, her son Telegonus, and even the sea monster Scylla feel real and emotional. The author gives new meaning to many parts of the old myth, especially when it comes to Circe as a woman, mother, and outsider. At the end of the book, there are thoughtful questions that invite readers to reflect more deeply. They touch on topics like identity, power, love, and the role of women in ancient stories. Great for book clubs or personal reflection.

“I would say, some people are like constellations that only touch the earth for a season.”

Bewertet: Buch (Taschenbuch)

I finally did it. I read "The Song of Achilles" years ago and was afraid of reading this one in case I don't love it as much as the other one. Turns out I worried for nothing. This is a great retelling of greek mythology and it was every bit as good as the Achilles-legend. We do get to meet the lesser goddess Circe as an approachable being with emotions, troubles and behaviours much like our own and not as a closed of immortal and divine nymph. I found myself wishing her only acceptance, friendship and love which differs greatly from the picture of her that is so often painted as cruel and unkind. Lovers of greek mythology books should read this one.

A must-read for all fans of Greek mythology!

Bewertet: Buch (Taschenbuch)

A captivating story of a young goddess who is outcast by her family but finds power in her individuality and solitude. Though the book spans centuries of time, it flies by in no time thanks to Millers beautiful prose that transports you right to the shores of Aiaia during the times of Greek heroes like Odysseus and Daedalus. "Circe" is a story about growth, spirituality, love & loss and femininity. It retells the story about one of the lesser known goddesses of Greek mythology with a finesse few other myth retellings can boast of. It checks all the boxes and is a must-read for all fans of Greek mythology!
