Event Description

Join us at the Lake Station-New Chicago library to discuss the book Circe by Madeline Miller. Copies of the book will be available at the front desk starting May 18. Attendance is limited to 15 attendees on a first come basis. Registration is required. 

Summary: "Circe is not powerful like her father Helios, nor viciously alluring like her mother Perse. Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers that she does possess power-- the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves. Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she hones her occult craft, tames wild beasts and crosses paths with many figures in mythology. When Circe unwittingly draws the wrath of both men and gods, she ultimately finding herself pitted against one of the most terrifying and vengeful of the Olympians."
