✦ Synopsis

Medea Georgievna Sinoply Mendez is an iconic figure in her Crimean village, the last remaining pure-blooded Greek in a family that has lived on that coast for centuries. Childless Medea is the touchstone of a large family, which gathers each spring and summer at her home. There are her nieces (sexy Nike and shy Masha), her nephew Georgii (who shares Medea's devotion to the Crimea), and their friends. In this single summer, the languor of love will permeate the Crimean air, hearts will be broken, and old memories will float to consciousness, allowing us to experience not only the shifting currents of erotic attraction and competition, but also the dramatic saga of this family amid the forces of dislocation, war, and upheaval of twentieth-century Russian life.

From the Trade Paperback edition.

Strutturato come un affresco polifonico, con vari personaggi che raccontano ciascuno il proprio punto di vista, il romanzo riscopre fonti antecedenti ad Euripide e ribalta la visione tramandataci dalla tradizione, rivelando così una nuova figura di donna. Medea non è più l'infanticida vittima dell'o
