Madeline Miller has written two #1 New York Times Bestsellers, The Song of Achilles and Circe. Circe is a retelling of several Greek myths told from the perspective of the long-overlooked sorceress and nymph Circe. The novel explores the origins of Circe and her power as she grows into them and herself. The novel is a beautifully told epic about love, loss, isolation, and what it means for a woman to find her voice in a male-dominated world.
Circe alone has won the Indies Choice Best Adult Fiction of the Year Award and the Indies Choice Best Audiobook of the Year Award. Additionally, Circe won The Red Tentacle Award, an American Library Association Alex Award (adult books of special interest to teen readers), and the 2018 Elle Big Book Award, as well as being shortlisted for the 2019 Women's Prize for Fiction. Currently, Circe is being adapted into a television TV show on the streaming service Max.
