WITH A NEW FOREWORD BY THE AUTHORNow that all the others have run out of air, it’s my turn to do a little story-making . . . So I’ll spin my own thread.
Penelope . . . immortalised in legend and Greek myth as the devoted wife of the glorious Odysseus, silently weaving and unpicking and weaving again as she waits for her husband’s return from the Trojan war.
Now, in Atwood's wise and witty retelling of the myth, Penelope wanders the underworld, spinning a different kind of thread: her own side of the story – a tale of lust, greed and murder.©2005 O.W. Toad Ltd.

Critic Reviews
Atwood takes Penelope's part with tremendous verve...she explores the very nature of mythic story-telling.
