In her latest book of essays, Haynes gives a new, more feminist, perspective on many of the goddesses of Greek mythology—including major figures like Athene, Hera, Demeter, Hestia, and Aphrodite. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Kendra Winchester discuss how Haynes balances the emotional weight of the stories with a warm and welcoming conversational style. She discusses their roles and how society has viewed them throughout history. Haynes asks listeners to examine our more traditional assumptions about these goddesses and how patriarchal structures inspired our notions about them.
