Description
Poetry. "WHAT PENELOPE CHOOSES is a rare combination of heart, heft, and technical brilliance. The voice is sure as it moves us through this old and familiar tale, both accounting for and challenging everything we think we know about what happened, what it meant, and who the telling serves."—Lauren K. Alleyne
