The Song of Achilles; [together with] -- Circe. First US editions, signed by the author on the title pages. Miller's retellings spearheaded the recent literary trend of reorienting ancient myths from overlooked perspectives, often female or LGBTQ+.In Circe, Miller "hoped that by bringing a woman's perspective and internal struggle to the forefront of mythology, Circe could also be part of a wider conversation in modern society, the events depicted mirrored by what she was seeing on the news" (Magtaggart).
