Medusa / Jessie Burton ; illustrated by Olivia Lomenech Gill.
Exiled to a far-flung island, Medusa has little company except for the snakes adorning her head instead of hair until a beautiful boy named Perseus arrives, disrupting her lonely existence and unleashing desire, love, and betrayal
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
