ISBN: 9781786892485 / 1786892480 - The Penelopiad: The Canons by Margaret Atwood. Published by Canongate Books, 2005. Softcover. Used, Excellent condition. 199 pp.
In a splendid contemporary twist to the ancient story, Margaret Atwood has chosen to give the telling of it to Penelope and to her twelve hanged Maids, asking: "What led to the hanging of the maids, and what was Penelope really up to?" In Atwoods dazzling, playful retelling, the story becomes as wise and compassionate as it is haunting, and as wildly entertaining as it is disturbing.
