Beschreibung
To mortal men, we are monsters. Because of our teeth, our flight, our strength. They fear us, so they call us monsters. Medusa is the only mortal in a family of gods. Growing up with her Gorgon sisters, she quickly realizes that she is the only one who gets older, experiences change, feels weakness. Her mortal lifespan gives her an urgency that her family will never know. This is the story of how a young woman became a monster. And how she was never really a monster at all. Longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction 2023
