Ithaca Forever: Penelope Speaks by Luigi Malerba

I finished this almost a week ago and I still can’t decide on a rating lol fluctuating between a 3 and a 4 but I can’t even commit to a 3.5. There were moments of such ínstense beauty, and there were moments that felt underwhelming or seemed to drag on. It’s very accurate to the original myth, aside from giving a voice to Penelope—but even that felt to come from Odyssey’s perspective somehow. Maybe it was the translation? I just can’t decide!! Sorry for the chaos
