Really beautiful graphic novel, but hard to follow? Like I have basic but solid understanding of mythology but I felt dropped in the middle of a story with no context. Also did not realize there would be an on page r*pe, even with the content warnings.
The fact she was a virgin made it even worse.
I got this from the library with volume two so I am going to give it another try. 

Update 1/23/24: tried volume two, couldn’t get past the first few pages. The more I think about it the more I am disappointed by volume one, so I am dropping the rating down.
