so-soGreek mythology-based tale with lots of liberties taken. The author is changing the story, but not enough to make it interesting…just annoyingly bland/OK. If you are looking for something cool or satisfying or engaging or sexy or emotional, look elsewhere. But if you want bland boring mashed potatoes, this is the one! And the characters have no dimension or growth, just so blah! A fast but not fulfilling read.

Art was a comfort to the Greeks.

Premise: Spurned princess Medea plots revenge upon her faithless lover Jason
Review: Euripides‘ plays have stood the test of time for a reason. They demonstrate a keen and nuanced understanding of the human psyche. Is Medea portrayed as a monster or as a sympathetic victim? ⬇️
