ok i remember reading this book in high school about 3-4 years ago? i was really into greek mythology and still am so i picked this one up from the library. while it wasn't extraordinary i did enjoy it somewhat. Telemachus and Melantho got on my nerves but other than that it was pretty good. I know some people complained it didn't entirely follow the original story but some elements were changed for the better IMO.i think there should have been more development for Klymene since shes so annoyi...more

While Odysseus is away trying to return from the Trojan War, his wife Penelope and son Telemachus stay at home on the island of Ithaka with Odysseus's parents, Laertes and Antikleia, and their servants. Life is hard enough without Odysseus, but when hordes of suitors arrive and begin taking advantage of Ithaka's hospitality while waiting in hopes that Penelope will marry one of them, things become uncontrollable. This retelling is from the point of view of Klymene - a twin sister to Ikarios who ...more

This is now one of my favorite books. It has a large focus on what happens in Ithaka while Odysseus is traveling back home. You get to know what all of the suitors are like much more than in anything I have read before. It also focuses on the relationship between Klymene and Ikarios, who are twins that have lived with their grandmother, Nana, who was also Odysseus' nurse. The biggest part of the plot is when Melantho comes into play in the beggining of the story. Telemachus ends up falling in lo...more

I enjoyed this book much more than "Troy" by Geras. I like the way this book is constructed. As the island of Ithaka waits for Odysseus to return, snippets of Odysseus' journey are woven in as excellent transitions in time. I like how the characters remember the gods visiting them or telling them something. In "Troy," the visits were almost always forgotten which made them seem pointless. The storyline of this book built up to a satisfying and bittersweet ending. The ch...more

This book is wonderful! I loved It!

this book deals with what Penelope, the wife of Odysseus, is doing in ithaka, while her husband goes through the Odyssey. This book is mainly told through the point of view of Telemaus, Prince of Ithaka, and his two friends. They have to deal with normal teen angst while trying to keep Queen Penelope from the suiters that take over the castle.

The author is really good at writting frustratingly good plots and love triangles. This book e...more

This book is kind of a sequel to "Troy". Different characters that live in Ithaka, waiting for the King Odysseus to come home. It's been nearly 20 years and people are starting to lose hope. Most think he's dead. Penelope, his wife and queen of Ithaka, is starting to have her doubts too.
One day, the suitors arrive. They all have one purpose that they will die for. Penelope's hand in marriage. She thinks they are revolting and wants them to leave. But they are determined to ...more

Adele Geras paints a beautiful (if slightly action-lacking) drama set on a legendary island and about legendary characters.

The story follows the characters left behind in Homer's Odyssey, as well as some of the author's own creation. She incorporates her own style, without losing the traditional spirit of what was already there.

Following this story, it felt as though you were simply observing from nearby, like a servant that everyone ignores. The perspective is highly eff...more

I have read and loved ‘The Odyssey’ and I have read and loved Margaret Atwood's brilliant adaptation of the myth in 'The Penelopiad', both of which are fantastic pieces of literature.

Unfortunately, ‘Ithaka’ feels very much like the poor relation: it lacks the poetry and beauty of the original and the wit and courage of Atwood’s version. I appreciate that this is a young adult book, but that does not excuse its clunky prose and lack of conviction in its own story.

When a writer chooses to develop a well known myth with archetypal characters it seems that there are two ways to go: either the characters behave as they do in the original piece and the book becomes an interesting companion to that original, developing different aspects reflecting the author’s own particular slant, or alternatively the author turns the characters entirely on their heads, making them interestingly different and so showing the original story in a new light. Sadly, this book seemed to waver between the two and so achieved neither aim. The whole point of Homer’s Penelope is that she waits faithfully for the return of Odysseus, but this book saw her both fall in love with and repeatedly have sex with one of the suitors. I feel that this could potentially have been a very interesting development to Penelope’s character (Odysseus, after all, is far from faithful to her during the same time), but instead it was inconsistent, pointless and was terribly out of place when the author returned to the original Homeric ending. It could have worked, but it didn’t.

Odysseus, when he eventually appeared, was equally unsatisfying. Given the casually bloodthirsty tone of Adele Geras’ other novel of ancient Greece, ‘Troy’, I wasn’t expecting Odysseus to be so soft. Some of the suitors are allowed to flee, and the killing of all Penelope’s handmaidens is removed altogether. I had expected Klymene, the rather insipid main character, to escape the slaughter but for it not to happen at all changes Odysseus a lot.

Although I try not to be too bothered by anachronisms in historical fiction, I found the repeated use of the word ‘crap’ to be particularly jarring and modern. Equally, there seemed to be a remarkable lack of pregnancy considering the promiscuity of some of the characters and the general dearth of contraception in ancient Greece. But without doubt the thing that annoyed me most about this book was the use of the gods. Sometimes they appeared in order to be involved in the plot or change the direction of the narrative, but most often they just seemed to appear for a quick chat which had no influence on the story whatsoever and so they lost any significance that they might have had.(less)

The wife that Odysseus left behind when he led the Greek army in the Trojan war. It is thirteen years since Odysseus first set sail for Troy and Penelope is still waiting for her husband to return. She waits and her loyalty unwavering. She would wait forever for her beloved husband to return. Unfortunately, not everyone believes as Penelope does, that Odysseus will return to Ithaka. When the Queen dies, Penelope finds herself ruler of the island in her husband's absence. But as a woman in such times, she has little power to exercise over her land. Her father-in-law Laertes wishes for her to remarry. He has lost hope that Odysseus will one day return to Ithaka.

Penelope is visited by the goddess Pallas Athene. Penelope is promised that Odysseus will return home safely if, and only if, she remains constant and unchanging. Pallas Athene tells her to work at her loom. Through Penelope's weaving, we see some of the challenges that Odysseus faces as he journeys home. This story is about the strength of love a wife's love and the huge weight upon her shoulders to be constant in her love for her husband and in her faith in the Gods.

Klymene is Penelope's handmaiden. She and her twin brother Ikarios were raised by her Grandmother as was Penelope's own son Telemachus. The three children are inseparable during their childhoods. As they grow into adolescence, the dynamic of their relationship changes. Telemachus is struck by cupid's arrow for a new servant girl, Melantho. Klymene's feelings towards Telemachus transform into something much more romantic than she feels for a brother. Ikarios is hopelessly besotted with Melantho. Aphrodite weaves her cruel spells upon the hearts of Ithaka's young people. The story is full of bitter-sweet moments, of longing and of the very human need to be loved.

Klymene is a constant source of comfort to Penelope. She helps carry her burden and gives her courage to remain constant. When King Laertes invites noble Lord Leodes to Ithaka, hordes of uninvited suitors come to the island to try to woo Penelope into marrying them. As the weeks and months go by, the cruel and barbaric Lords turn to ever more vile methods to force Penelope into choosing one of them. She is in an impossible position. She wants to do as Pallas Athene has asked and stay constant and unchanging but all around her people are telling her that Odysseus must be dead. Under such pressure could any heart remain constant? Will the people of Ithaka suffer because Penelope cannot do as she must? Penelope's love and faith is tested to the very limit. As I read, I felt every emotion that swept through Penelope's heart.

Ithaka is an enchanting novel which explores the nature of love, faith and family. There are heart-breaking tragedies as the young characters cannot see beyond the lies they are told. But this is also a novel full of such hope. Kindness transcends so many boundaries and some characters show great selflessness in their choices. Ithaka is a deep, remarkable story. The ending was beautiful and just what my heart desired. (less)

I'm a total nerd about Greek mythology so that whole aspect was pretty interesting, and while the plot was obvious and predictable(Odysseus leaves his wife to fight in the Trojan War, doesn't come back for thirteen years while Penelope [said wife:] has to remain faithful to him otherwise he'll die... and of course she has lots of suitors trashing her palace because she's gorgeous and the queen of an island), Geras threw in some fictional characters to make the story a bit more interesting: such as the servant-girl narrator, Klymene, her twin brother, and Klymene's slutty roommate. When things were boring historically, Geras invented some steamy romance drama to keep things going. Which was kind of interesting in that weird chicklit way... and also kind of boring after a while.

So, basically, I got kind of sick of all the weird jealousy/every man wants to rape you/remain faithful to your husband stuff. But otherwise, the book was pretty interesting, because the author writes fairly well and the characters are mostly likeable (except the ones, of course, you're supposed to hate.) One thing I didn't like though was that (SPOILER) when one of the semi-important characters died, I didn't really care. I hate it when characters die in books unless it's actually important to the story or it makes me feel like I miss them afterwards. In this case, I really didn't care (as opposed to The Book Thief or Where the Red Fern Grows.) So, there was a lot of unsentimental and unnecessary death.

I would recommend this to girls who want to take a break from studying or are bored over winter break. This book will temporarily dispel your boredom and take you someplace else for a couple minutes, then you can put it back down and go back to whatever you're doing. Finish this FAST - otherwise you'll end up dropping it. This isn't really exciting or page-turning, but the ending is somewhat satisfying.(less)

Ithaka was a great book, that pulled you right into the setting of ancient Greece. The book is about Klymene, a young handmaiden to Penelope, the wife of Odysseus. It has been many years since Odysseus left to fight in the Trojan War, and many believe he is not coming back. Penelope holds fast to the belief that her husband will return, even as uncouth suitors propose marriage to her and Ithaka falls into ruin. Meanwhile Klymene has fallen in love with Telemachus, her mistress's son, and must de...more

in a sentence or two: faithful Penelope is waiting for Odysseus to come home after the trojan war (still waiting 16 years after...yeesh) and in the meantime, the palace is overrun by dirty, nasty, stinky, mean men who are determined to marry Penelope and become ruler of Ithaka.

i was really excited to see this title, especially after having read Troy and really liking it. i am personally intrigued by greek mythology and the stories about the trojan war, and having the ability to read them in young adult form is just perfecto for me.

Ithaka focuses mainly on Klymene and her interactions with the other characters - the main of whom are Penelope (Queen of Ithaka, Klyemene is her personal handmaid / honorary daughter), Ikarios (Klymene's twin brother), Telemachus (Son of Penelope and Oddyseus and first love of Klymene), Melantho (the newest handmaid to Penelope, and rather conniving and slutty actually), and then the suitors (the dozens of men living at the palace for like 6 months waiting for Penelope to choose one of them).

as with Troy, there is a casual incorporation of the gods from Olympus and they are only seen by some characters. this element helps keep the story flow to the nature of a greek myth nicely. the god's don't consistently intervene, which is nice, but when they do you get a glimpse of them and their intentions before they vanish.

the best way that i can think to describe Ithaka is that it's a multi-layer love story complete with betrayal, murder, sadness, and hope. i did feel like it got a little long, however, that may have been the attempt by the author to help portray the extreme waiting that Penelope did so faithfully (well, most of the time) for Odysseus and to help the reader realize just how long and unpleasant the icky suitors made time at the palace for everyone in the meantime.

i couldn't help feeling like some of the characters were more shallow than i'd hoped for. while i really dug Klymene as a caring, devoted, and genuine person, i was let down by Telemachus, completely forgot about Ikarios at times, and felt that while Melantho provided a solid element of bitchyness that was necessary for the twists in the story, that she was a pretty underdeveloped character herself. i felt like they had to be deeper than they were portrayed, and that really bugged me.

overall, i appreciated the take on the flip side of the Odyssey from the palace point of view, and particularly from Kylemene's perspective. similiar to Troy in that the main characters are part of the palace life, Geras paints a vivid picture of that life and the surrounding landscape of the island of Ithaka and at times i really did see what she was describing. the story doesn't end perfectly, which is refreshing, and there are some serious heartaches along the way. Geras deals with first loves, doubt, and hope in an interesting and serious way.

fave quotes: "'Sorrow', said Odysseus, 'has to be borne, or we might as well die on our way out of our mothers' wombs. Life is threaded through with it, but you must face it and grieve and carry on if you're to be a real man. It's easier to do that when you've got your family around you. When you're in your own house. Home...that's the best that we can hope for this side of Hades, and it's worth fighting and even dying for. Ithaka is worth every bit of agony I've gone through to get here.'" (299)

"The only answer was a shrug, and Klymene sighed. She was used to the way men sometimes behaved, but it was exhausting. The wouldn't ever admit, straight out, what was wrong, but waited for the thing - whatever it was that was bothering them - to be drawn out slowly like a thorn from an animal's paw. You had to ask questions. They had to be the right questions. You had to guess and cajole and tease the pain out of them, and it could be a tedious business." (319) - a good example of Klymene's character also.

fix er up: i really wanted deeper character development from others besides Klymene!(less)

If you've ever read the epic poem THE ODYSSEY by Homer, you know that the author focuses on the thrilling journey of Odysseus. After the Trojan War has ended, Odysseus must battle witches, supernatural monsters, and even gods to gain back his lands and his faithful wife from the thieves that have kidnapped her. In the story of ITHAKA, the focus isn't on Odysseus, but on those that were left behind--first when he went off to war, and then when he fails to return home after the war ends.

The book is narrated by Klymene, a teenage girl who serves as handmaiden to Penelope, the wife of Odysseus. It's been two years since the Trojan War ended, and still her husband has not returned home to rule their land. There is a steady, never-ending stream of suitors vying for Penelope's hand in marriage, hoping that the (mostly) faithful wife will soon realize that her husband is gone forever. Penelope is not sought after because of love, but because of her wealth and the lands she will soon possess if she gives her husband up for dead.

For Klymene, it's difficult to fathom why Penelope is so determined to stay faithful to a husband who is most likely never to return. She soon learns about love and the matters of the heart, however, when she becomes infatuated with Odysseus's troublesome son, Telemachus. Matters are complicated even further when Klymene realizes that she, a lowly handmaiden, is not the apple of Telemachus's eye. That privilege belongs to another young woman who has come to serve in the household, Melantho.

One of the most interesting parts of ITHAKA is the paranormal aspect of Klymene, who is able to see the gods. She is also a keeper of secrets, and since she deals every day with individuals who would do anything to keep those secrets safe, it's a somewhat demanding job.

This is not a retelling of THE ODYSSEY. This is a completely different story, full of magic and heartbreak, joy and sadness, and the trial and error of growing up. There's something for everyone here, with mystery, romance, and action-adventure. If you love historical stories, or those based on myths, you won't go wrong with ITHAKA. (less)

This book was amazing, and totally heartbreaking. Death, love, longing, waiting, betrayal... Ithaka had it all. I cried really hard during this book, and it's funny because I don't cry.
