Status Updates From Penelope und die zwölf Mägde

lo detesto a odiseo me hace acordar a mi viejo

Why did Atwood make Telemachus such a brat?! I imagine this is how Penelope thinks her son is looking at her but I swear he loves her so much more than what Atwood is saying.

yay odyssey feminist recap

basically Odysseus was a jerkkk and everyone was a jerk

The suitors have started to push Penelope. When Odysseus left, Penelope picked up the pieces and started to make Ithaca thrive to show how capable she is. But the suitors have come in and ruined everything. They plot to kill Telemachus when he returns from his sailing mission. That part of the original odyssey makes me sad because I see Telemachus’s fear, optimism, and clumsiness in myself.
