Sinopsis	THE PENELOPIAD CANONS A fresh take on what follows Homer's The Odyssey by the international best-selling author of The Handmaid's Tale, Margaret Atwood. Penelope. Immortalised in legend and myth as the devoted wife of the glorious Odysseus, silently weaving and unpicking and weaving again as she waits for her husband's return. Now Penelope wanders the underworld, spinning a different kind of thread: her own side of the story - a tale of lust, greed and murder. The Myths series brings together some of the world's finest writers, each of whom has retold a myth in a contemporary and memorable way. Authors in the series include Karen Armstrong, Margaret Atwood, A.S. Byatt, David Grossman, Natsuo Kirino, Alexander McCall Smith, Philip Pullman, Ali Smith and Jeanette Winterson. MARGARET ATWOOD Margaret Atwood is the author of more than fifty books of fiction, poetry and critical essays.

'Her sequel, The Testaments, was published in 2019. It was an instant international bestseller and won the Booker Prize.' Atwood has won numerous awards including the Booker Prize, the Arthur C.
