Krátky popis
#1 New York Times Bestseller ", A bold and subversive retelling of
the goddess's story, Circe 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
TimesIn the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the
Titans, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child--not
powerful, like her father, nor viciously alluring like her mother.
Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers
that she does possess power--the power of witchcraft, which can
transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves.
Threatened, Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she hones
her occult craft, tames wild beasts and crosses paths with many of
the most famous figures in all of mythology, including the
Minotaur, Daedalus and his doomed son Icarus, the murderous Medea,
and, of course, wily Odysseus. But there is danger, too, for a
woman who stands alone, and Circe unwittingly draws the wrath of
both men and gods, ultimately finding herself pitted against one of
the most terrifying and vengeful of the Olympians. To protect what
she loves most, Circe must summon all her strength and choose, once
and for all, whether she belongs with the gods she is born from, or
the mortals she has come to love. With unforgettably vivid
characters, mesmerizing language and page-turning suspense, Circe
is a triumph of storytelling, an intoxicating epic of family
rivalry, palace intrigue, love and loss, as well as a celebration
of indomitable female strength in a man's world.
