This was really wonderful and powerful. A more mythical and lyrical Speak, in a way. The way it's told by telling, which they often say is bad, because you should show instead, but Medusa has never been able to tell her own story, so telling was important. I need to buy my own copy, so I can highlight passages. The illustrations are beautiful, as well.
