Readers of Madeleine Miller and Claire Heywood will be introduced to the tale of Medusa, the most notorious monster in Greek mythology.
They loved her first. They then mistreated her. They finally turned her into a villain.
Young Medusa, burdened by her extraordinary beauty, seeks refuge with the Goddess Athena. She is vulnerable, though, since she attracts the attention of the powerful and lecherous Poseidon. After all, powerful men seldom take responsibility for their deeds.
In the meantime, Perseus sets off on an almost unachievable quest with just courage and tenacity.
Soon, resentful and self-centered gods use Medusa and Perseus as pawns. Medusa is forced to hide and run from Athena's fury after being held responsible for her attack. Can she, however, avoid becoming into the monster they claim she is?
The truth of Medusa is long gone. History is filled with tales of valiant warriors and individuals with golden hearts. It's time to learn the tale of how historical women who disobey have been treated.
