Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 3
An unnamed narrator’s life is unraveling. Her only child has left home, and her twenty-year marriage is strained. Anticipation about her soon-to-be-released book of poetry looms. She seeks answers to the paradoxes of love, desire, and parenthood among the Greek and Roman gods at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. As she passes her days teaching at a boys’ prep school, spending her off-hours sequestered in the museum’s austere galleries, she is haunted by memories of a yearlong friendship with a colleague, a fellow poet struggling with his craft.

Thoroughly engaging. I can see that it might be particularly appealing to writers, academics, poets, or lovers of mythology or art.
I did find it fully absorbing- and found the narrator’s takes on marriage, teaching life, and motherhood poignant and funny.
I am still considering the ending- do I want more? Is it enough?
