  • サマリー

  • Sonja and Vanessa visit Circe’s Island, both in the Odyssey and in Madeline Miller’s brilliant novel. For those keeping score: time with Calypso + Circe = 80% of Odysseus’s 10-year trip home is on Love Islands with gorgeous, immortal women. Vanessa quizzes Sonja on ancient Greek witchcraft and why women keep giving grown men baths, and Sonja, as always, knows a thing or two. Spoiler Alerts for Madeline Miller’s Circe!

    Works referenced:
    Circe by Madeline Miller

    “Bias, She Wrote: The Gender Bias of the New York Times Bestseller List,” by Rosie Cima

    “Patterns of Persecutions: ‘Witchcraft’ Trials in Ancient Athens,” by Esther Eidinow
