Reviews
"I was so absorbed by the furious, passionate voice of Medusa interspersed with biting commentary." Jennifer Saint, author of ARIADNE "Hewlett impressively captures the voice of a woman who has been silenced and shaped by men into something she never wanted to be. Lovers of mythology are sure to be pleased by this deeper look into Medusa's origin story." Publishers Weekly
