Discover the full story of the sorceress Medea, one of the most reviled and maligned women of Greek antiquity, in this propulsive and evocative debut in the tradition of Circe, Elektra, and Stone Blind.
Among the women of Greek mythology, the witch Medea may be the most despised. Known for the brutal act of killing her own children to exact vengeance on her deceitful husband, the Argonauts leader Jason, Medea has carved out a singularly infamous niche in our histories.
But what if that isn’t the full story?
The daughter of a sea nymph and the granddaughter of a Titan, Medea is a paradox. She is at once rendered compelling by virtue of the divinity that flows through her bloodline and made powerless by the fact of her being a woman. As a child, she intuitively submerges herself in witchcraft and sorcery, but soon finds it may not be a match for the prophecies that hang over her entire family like a shroud.
As Medea comes into her own as a woman and a witch, she also faces the arrival of the hero Jason, preordained by the gods to be not only her husband, but also her lifeline to escape her isolated existence. Medea travels the treacherous seas with the Argonauts, battles demons she had never conceived of, and falls in love with the man who may ultimately be her downfall.
In this propulsive, beautifully written debut, listeners will finally hear Medea’s side of the story through a fresh and feminist lens.

Amazing how many people want to cash in on this feminist retelling of ancient myths thing. That doesn’t preclude the possibility that this is a good book, of course.

McSweeney’s says “Eilish Quin is a queer writer and artist based in California. They enjoy watching British crime dramas, rereading gothic novels, and staring aimlessly into tempestuous bodies of water”.

How do you ‘cash in’ on something that has a market? It sounds like McSweeney’s describes the exact author to write a retelling like this. You should read it. The original isn’t that good.

Medea is fairly clearly a candidate for re-evaluation, since hers is outstandingly a narrative of what can happen when men abuse women.
Natalie Haynes’ re-evaluation of Jocasta was a revelation.
I don’t understand the concept of ‘the original’ with Medea. Would that be Hesiod, Euripides, Apollonius, Ovid …..?

Thanks, this is welcomed

Euripides must be laughing his butt off! A feminist Medea? She would have been thrown off a mountain.
Total brain death here.
