Feminist reimagining of a peripheral god. Witchcraft as women's work, powered by will. Circe as slighted lover, rapist-transfiguring witch, self-sacrificing mother, only empathetic god (other than Prometheus) who doesn't feed on suffering. Jumping off Homer's Circe w/ "voice like a mortal. "Humbling women seems to me a chief pastime of poets."
评分Why everything has to start with a romance?? That should be the least feminist of all.
评分3.5 虎头蛇尾 still a beautiful retelling though
评分我喜欢这本书,但读得太痛苦。Circe真是女性的好榜样,结局强行happy ending. 过程这么女权,最后就给我们这样的结局?Jason那段感觉时间线不太对。Theseus都从Crete回去了,Medea才跟Jason刚偷完金羊毛?这个时候不应该Medea已经决裂了Jason跑到雅典跟Theseus老爹一起生了孩子再被Theseus打败,跑回家弑父吗?
评分So beautifully written and an engaging way for a Greek Mythology 101 education.
In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child--not powerful, like her father, nor viciously alluring like her mother. Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers that she does possess power--the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves.
Threatened, Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she hones her occult craft, tames wild beasts and crosses paths with many of the most famous figures in all of mythology, including the Minotaur, Daedalus and his doomed son Icarus, the murderous Medea, and, of course, wily Odysseus.
But there is danger, too, for a woman who stands alone, and Circe unwittingly draws the wrath of both men and gods, ultimately finding herself pitted against one of the most terrifying and vengeful of the Olympians. To protect what she loves most, Circe must summon all her strength and choose, once and for all, whether she belongs with the gods she is born from, or the mortals she has come to love.
“I will pass over the fact that you think me a mare to be bred.” Absolute savage coming from Circe. Solid 4.5???? rounded up to 5. To summarise, everything about it was really good and as the title suggests, the story is told and narrated from the pers...
