Medusa: A beautiful and profound retelling of Medusa’s story

Product Information

We all know what happens, but I will stop there, leaving you dear reader in Burton’s capable hands as she ends her marvelous retelling of this tale with a climactic ending. I’m glad it was illustrated because it greatly enhanced my reading experience and added to the storybook atmosphere the words themselves created. It was a lot of really flowery, really beautiful “Tumblr-esque” language - both in conversations and in Medusa’s internal dialogue - and it felt so forced and unrealistic. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. A book that is brilliantly conceived, vividly depicted, and expertly written and a book for everyone.

Just as enraged as Poseidon, Athena turns each and every strand of Medusa’s beautiful hair into a snake. Thereafter, Medusa’s curiosity overwhelms her so that she risks making his acquaintance, while keeping her face hidden.Burton has successfully written a novel that will bring a younger audience towards the likes of Natalie Haynes and Madeline Miller. Haunted by the memories of a life before everything was stolen from her, she has no choice but to make peace with her present: Medusa the Monster.

A muted colour palette consisting of mostly earthy tones was used for each of the gorgeous images and I would happily display every single one of them on my walls.Hotjar sets this cookie to know whether a user is included in the data sampling defined by the site's pageview limit.
