"Who was Medea, really? The legendary sorceress from Greek myth has been cast as many things--A caring mother and a passionate lover who was thwarted by her desires; an independent woman vilified for refusing the tyranny of men; a barbarian who sowed confusion in the regimented world of the Greeks; a formidable witch, mistress of occult forces. Simply put, she was precisely what some would call a monster. And yet, there is so much more to Medea.... From beyond the hearsay, exaggerations, and distortions inflicted by time, we hear Medea's story in her own voice, from the luxuriant gardens of her childhood in Colchis to the mysterious island from which she gives her final confession."-- Provided by publisher.
