So similar to my own family story that I wonder if this author is my cousin

Reading this as a Colorado Mexican with family in Chihuahua, during chile fest month no less, makes me physically ache to smell pintos and roasting chiles, it’s the best time of the whole entire year

Perfect range of subjects for any discerning reader listed here

It’s giving “To unpathed waters, undreamed shores”

This section would be really good to read during a media literacy class and I’m sad I didn’t have it around during my Shakespeare days

I can’t say how happy I am to be back reading this book again! I had been reading a library copy so I couldn’t bring it with me when I moved, and it’s taken me forever to find a copy. I’m glad to be back with my good literary friend!

Absolutely horrifying. Cora is a woman stuck in her own mind, which this story captures perfectly. Don’t freaking read this while you’re alone unless you’re a sadist

Good stuff

I wouldn’t finish this if I weren’t stubborn

Is it blasphemous for Catholic sailors to indulge in an orgy island populated by a Roman goddess? Whatever your judgement might be, it was weird and creepy and I’m glad that part is over

Never, ever think that your fanfiction or novel idea is too silly or piggybacking too much off another story, given that this is considered a classic piece of literature

Mostly it’s just talking about Greek mythology and then saying what the Portuguese sailors did was better

Nobody tell this author that this book is scarcely read by anyone today, or that so many people don’t know a single historical fact about Portugal or even where it is; he wants to be a piece of Greek or Roman lore so bad.
0 women given credit for jack so far, except for being treacherous and evil or for their boobs. Not surprised, just disappointed.

Greek mythology meets colonizer fanfiction! It’s amazing. It’s always hard to keep the poetic qualities in a translation, but so far they come across really well. It’s also really interesting to me that the Greek/Roman pantheon has such a big role so far, since one of the major goals is to colonize through evangelization and exterminate religions that aren’t Christian.
