Peneropiado Onna Tachi No Odesseia (The Penelopiad) (Bunko) [Japanese Edition]

Margaret Atwood

The Odyssey, the Greek heroic tale by Homer. In this masculine epic, the voices of women have never been heard. In the twenty years waiting for Odysseus' return, his wife Penelopeia, in order to protect her country, shuts her ears to gossip, raises a foolhardy son, and drives away property-hungry suitors. Why were the twelve maids murdered? In this new masterpiece, Atwood, the master of "The Handmaid's Tale" and "The Vow," demonstrates his talent for imagination and storytelling.
