This novel is both a redemption for Medusa and a challenge to our much-repeated tales of Greek heroes that unquestionably take the heroes as the main characters. Where A Thousand Ships problematizes and modernizes the classic Greek epics, Stone Blind redeems Medusa and other “monsters”. It was lovely.
