Description
The myth of Persephone reimagined for a modern-day reader. For nine thousand years, her story has been one of seasons and cycles, but when she emerges this spring, something is different. Rains lash the land, crops grow out of season or not at all, and even the gods seem to have lost control. Persephone's world is changing rapidly, and with it, her own desires for freedom begin to take root. As she navigates the shifting landscape, Demeter struggles to regain her powers and fend off her daughter's husband, who seeks to drag Persephone back underground. But what will this mean for all those involved - mother, husband, and the new shoots of life inside her? This thought-provoking reimagining explores the complexities of power, identity, and the natural world in a way that feels both timeless and timely.
