friends2lovers's review against another edition
1.5
A gifted young sculptor of Cyprus, named Pygmalion, was a woman-hater. Detesting the faults beyond measure which nature has given to women, he resolved never to marry.
With unutterable gratitude and joy he put his arms around his love and saw her smile into his eyes. Venus herself graced their marriage with her presence, but what happened after that we do not know…
It seems that Miller set out to tell the story of “what happened after” and in her version their marriage is not a happy one. The ending is bittersweet.
Endnotes: Literary fiction, mythology, 1st-person single POV, short story (6k words), ebook borrowed from Hoopla
