Women protagonists who push back against obstacles tell interesting stories. Myths, thousands of years old, set in the twenty-first century challenge contemporary issues facing women: traditional mores, patriarchy, religious superstition, unfaithful lovers, violence, and glass ceilings, among others. Medea, Jocasta, Mnemosyne and Eurydice are tales that are loosely re-told in this first book of short stories by Brit Chism. Contemporary issues of trafficking, homelessness, immigration, and family (Mother-daughters, and mother-son) are treated as well.
