Wake, Siren: Ovid Resung by Nina MacLaughlin
5.0
Revelation. Revolt. Revision. Resung.
I can not bring to words how much I needed this book, these stories retold, at this moment in my life... My beautiful mythical friend, Mika, who has passed 1 year ago to the month, would've absolutely adored this book. And I read these stories in honor of her name and memory.
Wake Siren is absolutely the spiritual sister to Francesca Lia Block's classics retelling in Ecstasia and Primavera and Love in the Time of Global Warming and others.
Do yourself a favor and pair this reading with Warpaint's 2014 self-titled album.
Eternally grateful to Nina MacLaughlin. You've helped me travel down a path I haven't taken since relearning Ovid in my first year at college through Mandelbaum's translation. Thank you.
