This collection of short stories focuses on the many women who were involved in ancient Roman mythology. Most were mistreated and poorly depicted, so expect to be enraged and depressed as you read a proper interpretation of their stories. This is disgustingly honest, and I love it because I hated how it made me feel about society.
