NATALIE HAYNES BRINGS life to the infamous myth of Medusa with a feminist, heartbreaking retelling unlike any other . . .

Witty, gripping, ruthless - Margaret Atwood via Twitter
Beautiful and moving - Neil Gaiman via Twitter

So to mortal men, we are monsters. Because of our flight, our strength. They fear us, so they call us monsters.

Medusa is the sole mortal in a family of gods.

Growing up with her Gorgon sisters, she begins to realize that she is the only one who experiences change, the only one who can be hurt. And her mortal lifespan gives her an urgency that her family will never know.

When the sea god Poseidon commits an unforgivable act in the temple of Athene, the goddess takes her revenge where she can and Medusa is changed forever. Writhing snakes replace her hair, and her gaze now turns any living creature to stone.

The power cannot be controlled: Medusa can look at nothing without destroying it. She is condemned to a life of shadows and darkness.

Until Perseus embarks upon a quest to fetch the head of a Gorgon . .

.

In Stone Blind, Natalie Haynes the Womens Prize-shortlisted author of A Thousand Ships brings the infamous Medusa to life as you have never seen her before.
