Such a good story, with beautiful storytelling. Le Guin has a way with words that never cease to amaze me…
As a fan of Greek and Roman mythology I must say, this is one of those “retellings” (this is not a retelling, but it kind of fits that category) that was done right. She gave voice to the women of that time in a really gracious way, giving complement to the original story, not tweaking it to fit a different narrative, just telling the story from a different point of view.
Honestly a joy to read.
