A collection of dramatic monologues imagined for the characters of some famous and infamous females from Greek mythology. Legendary women such as Helen of Troy, Medusa, Aphrodite, and Pandora speak out with poetic, sassy, and witty modern voices about age-old irony and incisive wit, the poet transports her readers to a mythic world as seen through the eyes of the mythic women who did not get to say very much about their own stories in the original myths. If you ever wondered what Aphrodite really thought about being labeled a “sex-goddess,” you need to read her monologue in this collection. After reading it, you will never be able to look at the classic Botticelli painting of a nude Venus in the same way subversive, funny, and imaginative collection of monologues is sure to delight and entertain any fans of Carol Ann Duffy’s classic feminist poetry collection, “The World’s Wife” .
