Stone Blind : the breathtaking Sunday Times bestseller

Longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction 2023

This audio edition is read by the author, Natalie Haynes.

In Stone Blind, the instant Sunday Times bestseller, Natalie Haynes brings the infamous Medusa to life as you have never seen her before.

'Natalie Haynes energizes the melodrama of ancient Greek gods with a divine level of storyteller’s flair...Listeners who enjoy transformative retellings of Greek myths will find much to relish in this production.' - AudioFile

'Witty, gripping, ruthless' – Margaret Atwood via Twitter

'Beautiful and moving' – Neil Gaiman

‘So to mortal men, we are monsters. Because of our flight, our strength. They fear us, so they call us monsters’

Medusa is the sole mortal in a family of gods. Growing up with her Gorgon sisters, she begins to realize that she is the only one who experiences change, the only one who can be hurt.

When Poseidon commits an unforgiveable act against Medusa in the temple of Athene, the goddess takes her revenge where she can: on his victim. Medusa is changed forever – writhing snakes for hair and her gaze now turns any living creature to stone. She can look at nothing without destroying it.

Desperate to protect her beloved sisters, Medusa condemns herself to a life of shadows. Until Perseus embarks upon a quest to fetch the head of a Gorgon . . .

I did not enjoy the characteritures the characterers were in this book. The tone was so sarcastic especially with the Gods, just portrayed as dumb petty creatures. Perseus was knuckleheaded. Athena was quite annoying. Meanwhile Medusa is an absolute saint. The characters just did not feel real, probably because the book is overloaded with characters so there was no time to deepen any. For example, why include Gaia? Why include the battle with the Giants? Does this really matter to the story of Medusa? To me this was not focused enough and therefore all over the place.
