Reviews

Micky - bookphenomena

Antigone was the central character, but those around her, good and bad were utterly compelling. This was a completely full and satisfying story for its 128 pages. I love a shorter story that packs all the punches. 4.

Thank you to Titan Books for the review copy. Females were precious for their uterus and therefore disempowered.

I really enjoyed the way Roth told this story in a pass-the-parcel POV keeping a totally coherent narrative voice and perspective of the story. 5 starsHeadlines:Greek tragedy retellingDytopian patriarchyFemale powerI ate this novella up in an evening and my thoughts are still on it afterwards. I couldn't put this novella down and I can see the tale staying with me; it's memorable.

These characters were mostly shades of grey but with one much darker than the others. The story of Antigone, her siblings and her parents' legacy was told in a dystopian earth, an earth that had many shades of familiarity but with a patriarchal dictator at its head.
