Louise Gluck

Louise Gluck is a contemporary poet who wrote a series of poems based on The Odyssey and on Greek Mythology.

You can read some of her poems here.

Be sure to read the ones that have Circe or Odysseus in the title. How do the poems reflect Gluck's interpretation of the story and of these two characters? How does the Circe in the poems compare to the way you viewed Circe after reading The Odyssey?
