Published in 2018, Circe is Madeline Miller’s defiant reimagining of the daughter of Helios, the sun god, and the ocean nymph Perse, known in myth as a dangerous sorceress, perhaps the most dangerous woman a man could come across. While it’s up for debate whether Circe or The Song of Achilles is the better book (I am firmly on Team Circe), I’m certain that many readers will agree with me that Madeline Miller is one of the best writers of the last decade.
