Her name is a byword for vengeance. Her crime, the most unnatural in history. But who was the woman behind the myth?
For thousands of years, the name Medea has conjured images of a monstrous witch who murdered her own children. In this sweeping and immersive biography, E. L. Hunter travels back to the dawn of Western civilization to uncover the flesh-and-blood woman who became a legend.
We meet a brilliant princess from the glittering, gold-rich kingdom of Colchis, a priestess with knowledge of ancient magic that could command the forces of nature. We witness her fall passionately in love with the Greek hero Jason, for whom she betrays her family, abandons her homeland, and performs astonishing feats of sorcery. But when Jason's devastating betrayal leaves her an outcast in a hostile foreign land, her devotion curdles into a fury that will make the world tremble.
MEDEA: SORCERESS, PRINCESS, EXILE is an unforgettable journey into the heart of the ancient world, a haunting and powerful portrait of a woman who was at once victim and perpetrator, lover and destroyer, and whose story forces us to confront the terrible price of justice.
