Many thanks to @claraelenadice.bsky.social for beginning what could be a thread of other work relating to this lesser known archaic epic about a few complicated women #Odyssey

Clara Elena García, Author 🇵🇾@claraelenadice.bsky.social · 2mo ago

For fans of the new Odyssey movie, here are two incredible retellings of Homer’s epic: Penelope’s Sch()iff by Ulrike Draesner: Penelope has had enough. She leaves the island with a hundred women and her two daughters. Penelope’s real story begins in penelopes sch()iff.

Join us next Tuesday for the launch of Leeanne Quinn's Landscape with Question! Tickets and more info:⬇️ www.carcanet.co.uk/events/lands...

How complete + final the feeling as I lift its curve in the net is a hybrid lyric-essay that moves between elegy, translation, & ecological witness, finding its gravitational centre in a sketch by Barrie Cooke of two figures hauling a pike from a boat. www.brokensleepbooks.com/product-page...
