Publisher's Summary
The women you know, the stories you don’t …
Two thousand years ago, a Roman poet picked up his pen and dared to wonder what a heroine might sound like. Now, the women of Greco-Roman myth are speaking once more. And they have stories to tell …
A murderous Medea stalks the streets of Belle-Epoque Paris, knife in hand, while a 17th-century Penelope faces accusations of witchcraft. Phaedra languishes, a bored and lonely Hollywood housewife until her husband brings home his dashing young son. Canace battles the dangers of the American Frontier, Sappho rebels against the rigid confines of academia and her relationship, while Dido must decide between desire and duty … in a 12th-century nunnery.
