Reading Notes: The Odyssey Part A

Today I read part A of the Odyssey readings. The stories covered the encounter and escape from Polyphemus, through Circe, and the death of Elpenor, the youngest crew member who fell off the roof of Circe's house. One thing that really stood out to me were the adjectives they used to describe Dawn such as "rosey fingered." I'm going to incorporate some more of those descriptors to my story telling this week.

I think maybe a story about Elpenor would be a good retelling this week.
