Book Description
Sing O Muse, of the rage of Medusa, cursed by gods and feared by men... From the mists of time, and ages past, The muses have gathered; hear now their songs. A web of revenge spun 'neath the moon; A poet's wife who breaks her bonds; A warrior woman on a quest of honor; A painful lesson for a treacherous heart; A goddess and a mortal, bound together by the travails of motherhood. And more. Listen to the muses, as they sing aloud...HER story. Musings of the Muses, 65 stories and poems based on Greek myths, is an anthology of monsters, heroines, and goddesses, ranging from ancient Greece to modern day America. They, like the myths themselves, cast long shadows of horror, fantasy, love, betrayal, vengeance, and redemption. This anthology revisits those old tales and presents them anew, from her point of view.

Book Description
Muses have fascinated for millennia, yet seldom receive as much exposure as the artistic geniuses they inspire. Of any age, descent or gender, muses enchant simply by being themselves. This innate capacity to inspire has been commonplace for many years, yet these catalysing forces are little understood. Offering a history of inspiration, Julia Forster lends a fresh perspective to what happened when Lewis Carroll played with Alice Liddell; when Rainer Maria Rilke dreamed of Salome; or when John Lennon wrote for Yoko Ono. An essential guide to how muses work.
