On this episode of Grape Culture, the team talk about their impressions of Madeline Miller's Circe, a retelling of the Circe myth made most famous in The Odyssey.
Is Miller's Circe a badass feminist role model who subverts the role she's forced into by the men in the story (and Classical Greek culture)? Or a victim whose actions are driven by others, not herself? You'll have to listen to this week's episode to find out.
