Psyche and Eros

by Luna McNamara

In a mythic rendition of love, fate, and divine interference, 'Psyche and Eros' offers a compelling retelling of ancient Greek mythology. Princess Psyche of Mycenae, destined to overcome a monstrous entity, defies societal expectations to prepare for her predetermined fate with martial prowess. However, when the envious Aphrodite employs Eros, the God of Desire, to ensnare Psyche with a fatal love curse, the narrative takes an unexpected turn. Eros himself falls victim to his own arrow, igniting a love for Psyche that sets them on a perilous journey. Amidst the backdrop of the burgeoning Trojan War and the deities' manipulations, Psyche and Eros must navigate treacherous challenges. This tale explores themes of autonomy, love, and heroism, reimagining a timeless story through a feminist lens, with Luna McNamara's captivating prose breathing new life into the storied lovers' plight.
