pickLove a retelling of Greek myth! I really enjoyed this interpretation of the Iliad (and a bit before/after) primarily from the POV of Briseis. I‘m not sure how I felt about a book positioned as giving women a voice having some chapters from Achilles POV though. A good #roll100 choice though!

If I could be granted three frivolous wishes, I'd make sure every book had a ribbon to mark the pages.

Prose is rarely as beautiful as Miller's 🫒.

so-soUnico libro di Baricco che non mi ha fatto impazzire. Completamente differente dal suo soluto stile, forse avevo io dele aspettative differenti
Recent acquisitions:
📖 Country: A Novel by Michael Hughes
📖 Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy (I collect editions of Tess and this is my 30th)

so-soI like the Odyssey more than the Iliad. So maybe that‘s part of this, but the author is more trope then man. He tells you that he brings the Iliad with him when he travels and it never fails to move him to tears. I‘m picturing him on Southwest Airlines between a overtired toddler and their parent assuring them “It‘s okay! It‘s just…Achilles!” And sobbing.
