Today we contemplate whether Madeline Miller's Circe is the world's original "ugly duckling" story, why Circe and Calypso are often confused for the same person, and explore Circe's selfish and mortal hating family! We discuss this and more in this cameo filled, who is who of Greek mythology in this origin story packed first half! Want to drop us a question, comment, or opinion? Then please send us an email at thereadingpartypod@gmail.com! We look forward to hearing from you!
