Literature question

[Anna Watkins <watkins@CRL.COM>]

A teacher just asked if I knew of a "reworking" of the story of Penelope,
the wife of Odysseus.  He's thinking of something in the tradition of
_Wide Sargasso Sea_ (Jane Eyre from the point of view of Bertha, the
crazy wife in the attic) or _Mary Reilly_ (Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde from the
housekeeper's viewpoint).  Does anyone know?  We have a class that is
reading those two in contrast with the originals, and other novels in the
same vein would be great to add to the list.

Thanks!
