Krátky popis
From the author of Herc, Winner of the Somerset Maugham Award 2024
and Waterstones Best book of the Year 2023, comes the story of
Aphrodite, goddess of lies. 'A remarkable feat of storytelling'
Rosie Hewlett on Herc
*************************************************** 'I’m a liar, to
begin with.' I wasn’t always a goddess, you see. My only real power
was my beauty – you’ll have heard. It’s legendary. But that was
never going to be enough for me.It took a web of lies to convince
the gods of Olympus I was one of them. But I did. I was that good.
Zeus gave me a title and riches and loved me. And all he wanted in
return was for me to love him back.But of course, Zeus was a
tyrant. (Not entirely surprising when you’re ninety per cent
insecurities and ten per cent raw power.) I couldn’t live at
someone’s mercy. Really, I had no choice. I had to take on the
mightiest Olympian of all. And this bit’s not a lie… I intended to
win. From the award-winning author of Herc, this is the riveting
tale of how a nobody became a goddess, and then planned to take
down the most powerful god of them all.
