About this book

Female monsters from Greek mythology become a framework for examining the limits placed on women in modern culture. Jess Zimmerman considers figures including Medusa and the Furies alongside traits such as ambition, anger and hunger. These essays argue that qualities treated as unnatural in women can instead become sources of agency and power.
