"Steal peace"

[mollyringle.livejournal.com]

So I'm re-reading The Queen of Attolia, and I just now picked up on a bit of wordplay that I never noticed before, even though it's literally on the cover.

I have this edition, with the quote on it, "Steal peace, Eugenides. Steal me some time."

And the name "Irene" means "peace." Ha. I (finally) see what they did there. Clever.

Btw, I also didn't realize there was a Eugenides Wiki until now. Cool!
