Hera by Jennifer Saint
Hera by Jennifer Saint, bestselling author of Ariadne and Elektra, is a fierce and captivating retelling of Greek mythology this time giving voice to the long-silenced Queen of Olympus. Hera, often cast as vengeful and jealous, steps forward to tell her own story of power, betrayal, divine duty, and female resilience.
With lyrical prose and feminist insight, Saint reimagines Hera not as a scorned wife, but as a goddess of strength, sovereignty, and sacrifice in a world ruled by patriarchal gods.
