Emily Wilson, whose translation of the Odyssey has received a lot of attention since the movie came out, has added a new contact button to her website in response to right-wing assholery. You can now contact her for "Interviews/Speaking Engagements," "General Inquiries," "Misogynistic Trolling," or "Kind Words and Praise."

@joyce@hcommons.social loved her translations of illiad/odyssey and looking forward to "Crossing the Wine-Dark Sea" in a month or so.

@joyce@hcommons.social I wonder how many TROLLS will actually use the button, not realising she's being the troll and they're being suckered! 🤔 😜

@joyce@hcommons.social Why are they trolling her for simply translating stories? Right-wingers are insane.
