A review by dana_yamaguchi
Medusa [Illustrated Gift Edition] by Jessie Burton

5.0

"You could take my arms and legs, my body and my breasts; you could cut off my head and still not end my myth.
You will not find my answer in the puzzle of a stony foot, you will not find me in my snakes.
You will not find me in my deeds, nor in poems written by long-dead men.
But you will find me when you need me, when the wind hears a woman's cry and fills my sails forward.
And I will whisper on the water that one must never fear the raised shield, the reflection caught in an office window, or a mirror in the bathroom.

I will tell you to look into me, and you will see.
Look, Medusa, girl and Gorgon.
You.
Me."
-Jessie Burton, Medusa
