Y'all! My son introduced me to Epic: The Musical (of the odyssey) on Spotify and it's amazing! I'm listening to it while reading this graphic novel version of the tale for a fully immersive experience. 😄

AnnCrystal 🤩 A graphic novel version! Epic 📚💝. 3mo

One day late.

I would love to eat ambrosia and drink nectar with the Greek gods. That way, I'd stay young, gorgeous, and live forever so I could actually read every book on my TBR! 🤩🤣🤩

Gissy I need to eat that too🙋🏽‍♀️😂 4mo

A fair amount of reading was done in March. While many books are in the 3-star range, I did really enjoy The Odyssey (read over two months). I finished ny #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin, read a couple of books for #192025, read two books set in big cities for #FictionalTraveler, a couple of #1001Books, and I even got a Bingo.

Pickpick

Emily Wilson's translation gets a HUGE standing O from me, and Audra McDonald's audiobook narration is unbelievably moving and deeply emotional. It's a long listen (took me 4 weeks to get through), but it's worth the commitment. And the quote here from Wilson's introduction could not be more true. The loss throughout the story is staggering in scale, brutal and overwhelming- yet the grief described is so human and so cathartic. Bravo all around.

willaful Oh interesting, they use this same theme in “Hadestown.“
