The Song of Achilles is definitely one of Madeline Miller's best works, but I feel like Circe is a very underrated masterpiece and that makes me so sad

@booksociety’s All By Myself Event: Circe by Madeline Miller
“I was used to unhappiness, formless and opaque, stretching out to every horizon. But this had shores, depths, a purpose and a shape. There was hope in it, for it would end, and bring me my son.”
