✦ Synopsis


Who was more alone than Medusa? Raped in Athena's temple, transformed into a monster, and banished into a cave, Medusa may be the ultimate example of victim blaming. In The Loneliest Girl, Kate Gale creates a powerful alternative narrative for Medusa and for all women who have carried guilt and shameβ€”for being a woman, for not being enough, for being a victim. She offers a narrative in which women are the makers of the worldβ€”in which women find their way out from the cave of the Cisthene and into a world where they determine their own destiny.
