Exiled to a far-flung island by the whims of the gods, Medusa has little company except the snakes that adorn her head instead of hair. But 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 and betrayal. A dazzling, feminist retelling of Greek myth from the internationally bestselling author of "The Miniaturist", stunningly illustrated by Olivia Lomenech Gill.
