This stunning collection of myths is for adults, and brings together 52 goddess myths from across the globe: familiar, unknown, forgotten – spectacular! Pioneering storyteller Sally Pomme Clayton revitalises powerful goddesses, creating new perspectives and contemporary literature from fragments of myth. It features 52 papercuts by artist Sophie Herxheimer, juxtaposing the ordinary and fabulous. The Mighty Goddess reimagines ancient myths in poetic language, putting the goddess in the centre of the narrative, exploring the diverse ways in which goddesses are represented. Words and images delight and subvert, revelling in the female, exploring creativity, desire, destruction and death. This contemporary collection brings goddesses to life in all their glory.
Journey from Alaska to Mesopotamia, and ancient Rome to Tibet, and follow the goddess from creator to crone in a collection where myth and art combine.

लेखक के बारे में
Sophie Herxheimer is an artist and poet. Her work has been shown at her local allotments, Tate Modern and on a giant mural along the seafront at Margate. She’s made a 300m tablecloth for the Thames Festival, a life-size concrete poem in the shape of Mrs Beeton, and a pie on the lawn of an old people’s home big enough for seven drama students to jump out of, singing. Her poetry collection Velkom to Inklandt (Short Books, 2017) was a Sunday Times poetry book of the year. Her latest is a deck of prophetic collage cards, INDEX (zim Zalla, 2021). www.sophieherxheimer.com
