"Written by 'the new Mary Beard', classicist Honor C argill-Martin flips the script in this enchanting anthology of eight Greek myths where women take centre stage. In Greek Myths for Young Feminists, passionate classicist Honor Cargill-Martin redresses this imbalance by retelling eight classic Greek myths, this time from an all-female perspective. Written in first-person, we hear from the astute sorceress Medea and her pivotal role in the quest for the Golden Fleece; discover the contributions of C retan princess Ariadne in the slaying of the Minotaur; witness the strength and resilience of Atalanta, C irce, Helen of Troy, and many other women who have been previously overshadowed by their male counterparts. With her meticulous research and insightful storytelling, readers will be mesmerised as Honor resurrects these voices, breathes new life into well-loved stories, and drags the C lassics into the modern world."
