About this book

It is an innovative and female-centered reinterpretation of the fable of the great hero Perseus. The story is told through the voices of three women who are sidelined in the standard version, his mother, Danae; his trophy, Medusa; and his wife, Andromeda.

About the author

Claire Heywood

Claire Heywood read Classical Civilisation at Warwick and took a master's there in ancient visual and material culture. Her novels hand Greek myth back to the women inside it. Daughters of Sparta, her first, gave the Trojan War to Helen and her sister Klytemnestra and sold well enough in America to reach the bestseller lists.
