If you love myth retellings that question who gets remembered—and why—this one’s a treat.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eFrom the underworld, Penelope looks back on her life in Ithaca: a kingdom under pressure, a marriage shaped by absence, and the daily performance of loyalty that legend made famous. But Atwood threads in darker currents—lust, greed and murder—while Penelope and the chorus of twelve maids offer competing versions of what really happened, and what it cost.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003ePerfect for readers of literary fiction, Greek mythology, and book-club favourites that spark debate, especially fans of clever, subversive storytelling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eAdd it to your shelf and hear a classic story speak in a very different voice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dear Village","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53370890584340,"sku":"9781920885953","price":19.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6460\/0596\/files\/9781920885953_1.jpg?v=1785389961","url":"https:\/\/dearvillage.com.au\/products\/the-penelopiad","provider":"Dear Village","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
