Dana Monroe asked Madeline Miller:

I just finished Circe and loved it; not generally a mythology fan but you are peaking my interest!! I'm looking forward to reading The Song of Achilles....does it matter that I'm reading it 2nd? thanks

Yawar asked Madeline Miller:

Hi, I gulped down Circe in a day and will be reading Song of Achilles soon. Thank you for writing these tellings, I always enjoy looking for the hidden meaning in them. Do you feel that you have a story to tell about Athena, too? For all her schemes and shortcomings, she is still an intriguing character, a warrior and counselor in a world of men.

Carly Lyn

Carly Lyn asked Madeline Miller:

Song of Achilles is my all-time favorite book and now Circe is as well. What I love about them both is the complexity of the characters' relationships. Both books are un-put-downable but also super character-driven. What's your approach to creating that page-turning ability in books that are mostly about feelings? What's your revision process like? Do you do a lot of cutting? Restructuring? Filling out?
