Product Description
by Lhuzie F?nix (Author)
Lhuzie F?nix drags you into a Marxist queer transfeminine retelling of Persephone's myths.
Proserpina is the flawless daughter, the perfect middle manager for Heavens - an all around good girl. Her tenure as the Flower Painter is interrupted by the flowering of the asphodel - a drab, ugly thing of pale and grey that defiles her domain. In a pyrrhic victory, she defeats the invasion but is stuck in the Underworld. Surrounded by enemies, the goddess must make her escape. In a desperate gamble, she strikes a deal with the shades of the dead, empowering them with her divine ichor. Proserpina must fight across the Underworld while recruiting the army of dead kings and mortal monsters. However, the Underworld is a realm of trials - even for one such as her. As she struggles, she must confront herself. What being a goddess demands; what is her place in the cosmos. Is devotion to the status quo that would forsake her worth it? Can she trust her mortal companions, even love them? Or are they doomed to bring ruin to each other?
