American Madeleine Miller, classical philologist and Shakespearean scholar, became known to readers around the world thanks to her debut novel “the Song of Achilles”. "CIRCE" also has its roots in the Homeric epic and also fascinates with an unexpected reconstruction of personal history within the myth.
