ALL THE VIOLET TIARAS: QUEERING THE GREEK MYTHS (PB)

Ancient Greece was rich with stories of queer love and gender-fluid identity but what can these ancient stories tell us about our contemporary world? And was antiquity’s relationship with queer people more complicated than we now imagine? Historian Jean Menzies dives into the world of queer readings and retellings of Greek mythology, inviting readers to discover the power to be found in remaking these narratives. A space for queer stories to be told with all the complexity and tenderness they deserve - and a goddess or two thrown in for good measure.
