Debut Novel
Psyche
Drawing directly from Apuleius's Metamorphoses — the 2nd-century Roman text that gives us the clearest written source of this myth — Psyche uses the original Roman naming conventions to ask what makes a myth endure: the truth it holds, or the lie it comforts us with?
Psyche of Crete is determined to marry with greater happiness than her sisters. But when her beauty threatens the influence of Venus, the goddess of love dispatches her son Cupid to intervene. Caught in a web of violence and expectations, Psyche must fight not just for her life, but for a voice in a world that would silence her.
Content warnings: sexual assault, rape, domestic abuse, forced pregnancy, miscarriage.
