Description
Medusa has been exiled to a far-flung island by the whims of the gods. She has little company except the snakes that adorn her head instead of hair. When a charmed, beautiful boy called Perseus arrives on the island, her lonely existence is disrupted with the force of a supernova, unleashing desire, love, betrayal. In this feminist retelling of the Greek myth, a moving story about consent, the abuse of power, and being comfortable in your own skin. -- adapted from jacket
