This is only incidentally about Medusa. It mostly seems a story about how loathsome the Greek gods/immortals were, with the single exceptions of the Gorgon Sisters.

And Haynes didn't want me to feel empathy for Perseus, for Danae, or for anyone but Medusa, but I did.

I've loved Greek mythology since early adolescence, but: the immortals were appalling examples of the worst habits and indulgences of humanity
