Should the Odyssey be read as a "closed" text, that is, as one whose meaning is highly determined, or as an "open" text whose contradictions and ambiguities undercut its overt meanings? Siren Songs presents a feminist critique of the Odyssey in an accessible manner aimed at a more general audience. All Greek is translated, and critical terminology is clearly defined.

It really puts in perspective how times have changed. Not only the social stereotype of young girls today, but work ethic in them all. Daughters back then had to practically run the house from the inside-out, and complaining was never an option; nor did they know another way to go along with these daily duties besides being hard working and determined.
