"But in a solitary life, there are rare moments when another soul dips near yours, as stars once a year brush the earth. Such a constellation was he to me."

Exquisite writing. I did not want to put this book down after the halfway point.

I just really like mythology retellings. I definitely liked Song of Achilles more but I still really enjoyed this.
