This event is being presented virtually. Madeline Miller’s first novel and New York Times bestseller, The Song of Achilles, was awarded the 2012 Orange Prize for Fiction. Her second novel, Circe, also a New York Times bestseller, won the Indies Choice Best Adult Fiction of the Year Award as well as being shortlisted for the 2019 Women’s Prize for Fiction. With unforgettably vivid characters, mesmerizing language, and page-turning suspense, Circe is a triumph of storytelling, an intoxicating epic of family rivalry, palace intrigue, love and loss, as well as a celebration of indomitable female strength in a man’s world. Circe is currently being adapted for television series by HBO Max. The program will include a live question and answer session at the end of the presentation.
