Description: Stone Blindby Natalie Haynes Synopsis: The novel "Stone Blind" by Natalie Haynes, which was longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction 2023, offers a fresh perspective on the infamous character of Medusa. In this instant Sunday Times bestseller, Haynes brings Medusa to life in a way that readers have never seen before.The story revolves around Medusa, who is the only mortal in a family of gods. Growing up alongside her Gorgon sisters, Medusa gradually becomes aware of her uniqueness - she is the only one who experiences change and can feel pain. This realization sets her apart from her divine siblings and emphasizes her vulnerability in a world of immortals.However, Medusa's life takes a dark turn when Poseidon, the god of the sea, commits an unforgivable act against her in the temple of Athene. Seeking retribution, Athene invokes her power, transforming Medusa into a creature unlike any other. Medusa's once-beautiful hair is now replaced by a mass of writhing snakes, and her gaze has the terrifying ability to turn any living creature to stone. She finds herself cursed with a destructive power that she can never fully control.Haunted by her new form and the fear it invokes in others, Medusa condemns herself to a life of shadows in order to protect her beloved sisters. She becomes isolated from the world, unable to connect with anyone due to the danger she poses. Her existence becomes a constant struggle as she navigates her curse and the loneliness it brings.However, the tides turn with the arrival of Perseus, wBook Information:ISBN 13: 9781529061512Publisher: PicadorYear: 2023Format: Paperback Shipping Shipping service:We strive to provide the best possible methods of shipping for your book, so that you buy from us without worrying about shipping time, extra charges, delays or any other hassles.
