To some it elegantly evokes the 'chill of antiquity'; to others it's hamfisted and infantile. What's your view of last year's Orange prize winner?
I cried every page through this book. I loved it, and it gave my years of reading Homer a really great dusting off. The author loved the source material and love.
i haven't read Circe. And probably won't. When an author finds a way into me with such vivid sublimity I would rather accept that one golden moment and let everyone else have the rest.
