Gender Swapped Greek Myths

Karrie Fransman and Jonathan Plackett left the Greek myths intact and changed one thing: every character's gender. Heroes become heroines, goddesses become gods, and the plots run exactly as they always did, which is the point. Reading a familiar story with the roles reversed exposes how much of its force came from assumptions about who acts and who waits, and the illustration throughout matches the reversal rather than commenting on it. Its main attractions: • Classical myths retold with every character's gender reversed • Original plots preserved, so comparison with the source is direct • Illustrated throughout in a style built for these retellings • Works as both a reading experience and a thought experiment For readers of mythology, collectors of illustrated books and anyone interested in how narrative convention shapes meaning.
