A punk revival of Medea as a meddling anti-angel of birth and death, from the International Booker Prize–nominated author of Reservoir Bitches.
In the mythic but all-too-familiar country of Aztlán, the violence of the cartel and the military are ever-present and indistinguishable, and everyday people strive to survive in the cross fire. Enter Medea: a deity with punk-rock flair, equal parts midwife and gravedigger, ancient but never too old to be petty.
In this novel in stories from the author of the International Booker Prize–nominated Reservoir Bitches, a reimagined Medea helps a trophy girlfriend with her abortion, accompanies a mother in search of her lost son in the desert, and embraces tragic victims of the state and its proxy wars. Dahlia de la Cerda’s prose pierces the heart and introduces readers to a magnetic new version of a mythological icon—a femme fatale legend in a fatalistic world.
