A PLAGUE OF GODS reimagines classical myths and the Epic of Gilgamesh as stories set in the early months of COVID. Each story contains an essence of the original, offering a mythic framework for this profoundly strange and anxious time. Most are told from the point of view of women who, in the original myths, were reduced to the roles of goddesses, monsters, or beautiful maidens. The themes are eternal: hope, confusion, longing, pride, rage, and death. Everything is changed, and yet, nothing is.
