Psyche (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798998604621)

Keep your own name and demand the gods say it.

Psyche of Crete is determined to marry with greater happiness than her sisters, but when rumors of Psyche's beauty begin to affect temple tribute, Venus, the goddess of love, dispatches her son Cupid to nip the problem in the bud. Instead, Cupid is pricked by his own weapon, falling irrevocably in love with Psyche. The steps he takes to claim her, and the fall out from such, will set Psyche on a collision course with the gods, fighting not just for her life, but for a voice in a world that would silence her.

What makes a myth endure? The truth it holds, or the lie it comforts us with? In this arresting reimagining of the Greek myth, a young woman caught in a web of gods, violence, and expectations steps out of the shadows of story to shape her own truth. Psyche is a meditation on power and the stories we inherit . . . and the ones we choose to tell instead.
