This book is incredible.  

A commentary on patriarchy and the witch hunt set in a classic Greek story. 

Readers will find Queer joy and representation amongst the needed fight for feminism against growing violence of patriarchy as well as an artful metaphor with climate change. 

This book inspires me to push back against the current hateful political regime in the states while affirming that strong, queer, femine voices permeate history. AND feminine and gender minorities are not alone. That there are masculine voices who disagree with the prevailing tide and will pick up the fight along side. 

You are not alone.
