English

The speaker of Margaret Atwood’s Siren Song is a Siren. From the siren’s perspective, she tells her story of how bored she is sitting all picturesque and mythical and how the song is a cry for help. Everyone who has heard her song is dead since it lures men to leap overboard and die even though they know what fate they will have. Her voice is very casual and informal and gives a modern take to the stories of Sirens from the eight century BC.
