The Clovis North Book Review 2 : Myths Retold

The episode explores books reinventing mythology from all over the globe. The marginalized characters that narrate these stories create compelling and lyrical tales that challenge us to ask who we place in the center and who we relegate to the sidelines. Some of these books search for the darkness in classic stories with a well-timed what-if. This week’s selections: Ariadne by Jennifer Saint, The Girl Who Fell Beneath The Sea by Axie Oh, Twisted Tales-A Series, Galatea , Circe, and the Song of Achilles-all by Madeline Miller.
