I am reading this again I do not gaf. Noting that she is really committing to the use of the epic rhythm here…I only noticed it in the last third of the book on read 1 but it’s like, kinda whenever an Important Object Symbol or Theme is introduced, those syllables line right up so cleanly. Great stuff. Also the mirroring of images in the first couple chapters and last third is. Whew! Powerful!

I have finished. Which is to say I have been gutted like a fish and left to die in the sun. Very beautiful work you have done here Madeline Miller but at what a cost it was you did it. Christ
