Homer's Daughter

Homer's Daughter is a 1955 novel by Robert Graves, famous for I, Claudius and The White Goddess. It starts from the idea that Homer's Odyssey was actually written by a princess in the Greek settlements in Sicily. The novel makes an entirely speculative reconstruction of who she was and why she wrote such a work. It has her modifying the legends that existed in her own time to partly match a crisis in her own life. It is one of Graves's less popular novels.
