A misfit among gods, and especially her own family, Circe struggles to find her own path, foster her hidden talents, and form lasting relationships based on love and respect. A major theme in "Circe" is the various roles expected of women in Greek society. Even as the daughter and granddaughter of Titans, Circe's womanhood is a powerful force which shapes her destiny: one which she must learn to use in her own way, for her own ends, to escape the unwanted fates of so many of her nymph sisters/cousins/aunts. Circe's fears, desires, joys, and growth are engaging and believable. Her story captivated me from beginning to end!
