Girl Meets Boy: The Myth of Iphis (Myths) by Ali Smith
Girl Meets Boy: The Myth of Iphis (Myths)

slackgretch, September 1, 2011

Girl Meets Boy is a WONDERFUL retelling of the myth of Iphis and Ianthe! Smith writes is a way that is beautiful and lyrical, in competition with Ovid's original, but in a modern setting. Questioning the morality of modern money making tactics, and traditional roles. This book compelled me to dive into the rest of Smith's work, all of which has lived up to the high standard set by Girl Meets Boy.
