Adèle Geras
Praise for Ithaka
An absorbing, sweeping novel that grabs readers from the touching opening page onwards - there's no half heartedness
The Bookseller

Guardian
Adele Geras's Ithaka is authentic. It's as worked and reworked as Penelope's weaving as she waits for Odysseus post Troy, but it's seamless
