“Far from action-packed adventures of brave heroes on perilous journeys, these contemporary retellings of Greek myths are erotic and intellectual….Vignettes of urgent free verse make for a fast read . . . . Block raises the edgy question: ‘Is beauty monstrous?’ ~ ALA Booklist


“[Block] deftly weaves myth and magic into scenes from contemporary life, viewed through a shimmering prism of the very hip.” ~ Publishers Weekly, starred review
