Praise for Song of Achilles - /// "Sharply written, cleverly re-imagined. Incredibly rewarding." - USA Today "One of the best novelistic adaptations of Homer in recent memory." - Wall Street Journal Praise for Circe - /// "Circe,' [is] a bold and subversive retelling of the goddess's story that manages to be both epic and intimate in its scope, recasting the most infamous female figure from the Odyssey as a hero in her own right." - Alexandra Alter, New York Times "One of the most amazing qualities of this novel [is]: We know how everything here turns out - we've known it for thousands of years - and yet in Miller's lush reimagining, the story feels harrowing and unexpected. The feminist light she shines on these events never distorts their original shape; it only illuminates details we hadn't noticed before." - Ron Charles, The Washington Post "Miller's spell builds slowly, but by the last page you'll be in awe. In prose of dreamlike simplicity, she reimagines the myth of Circe.

" - People "So vivid, so layered, you could get lost in it. Whether or not you think you like Greek Mythology, this is just great storytelling. It feels cinematic." - NPR's Here & Now "At once a scholar's homage to The Iliad and startlingly original work of art.A book I could not put down." - Ann Patchett, author of The Dutch House "Wildly romantic [and] surprisingly suspenseful.[B]ringing those dark figures back to life, making them men again, and while she's at it, us[ing] her passionate companion piece to The Iliad as a subtle swipe at today's ongoing debate over gay marriage. Talk about updating the classics.

" - Time "Powerful, inventive, passionate, and beautifully written." - Boston Globe "The story of Circe's entanglement with Odysseus lasts far beyond the narrative of "The Odyssey," making for compelling material to revisit. But ultimately it's as a character that Circe stands apart.Through her elegant, psychologically acute prose, Miller gives us a rich female character who inhabits the spaces in between." - Colleen Abel, Minneapolis Star Tribune.
