A (not so) quick look at the popular sub-genre of feminist myth retellings. I'm interested in examining the trend as a whole, and although I single out and discuss specific books, I only do so in hopes of highlighting broader trends across the sub-genre. (I guess we can call it a sub-genre now?) Thank you for watching!
