This book left me emotionally wrecked when it came to Medusa and so disappointed on Athena as a mythological figure (I’ve always loved what she represented without paying much attention to her actions in the myths). However, this book gave me a rounded perspective on both Athena and Medusa as female characters in the myths, I could understand them toward the end of the book and what the author wanted to accomplish.
