A review by sherri_berri
Clytemnestra by Costanza Casati

adventurous dark emotional medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

Quite good overall! I enjoyed the writing style & indepth characterisations, but there were a few marrative choices that felt jarring to me (namely the pacing felt off due to the
15 year gap and the abrupt changes in POV
). Nonethless, this book certainly made me feel for Clytemnestra and the women in ancient greek mythology, and held my attention (no easy feat) during the faster paced chapters.
