A dazzling, feminist retelling of Greek myth from the internationally bestselling author of The Miniaturist, stunningly illustrated by Olivia Lomenech Gill. Exiled to a far-flung island by the whims of the gods, Medusa has little company except the snakes that adorn her head instead of hair. But 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 and betrayal... Filled with glorious full-colour illustrations by award-winning Olivia Lomenech Gill, this astonishing retelling of Greek myth is perfect for readers of Circe and The Silence of the Girls. Illuminating the girl behind the legend, it brings alive Medusa for a new generation.

Medusa's Story

Rebecca Paper Plus Te Awamutu - December 2022

I have just read and Loved this retelling of Medusa by Jessie Burton, Beautifully illustrated and a much more in-depth story that gives you the background to how Medusa became a girl with Snakes for Hair! Maybe Perseus ISN'T the Hero we have all been lead to believe . . .
