Heroines: An anthology of short fiction and poetry

The Heroines Anthology is an anthology of short fiction and poetry, written by women and about women. This third volume of the anthology combines writing on the ancient and the modern, and travels alongside some of the forgotten women of history, both real and imagined. With a focus on rewriting the heroines of legend, fairytale, and mythology in ways that are both resonant and startlingly new, The Heroines Anthology presents a challenging and soulful collection of short fiction and poetry by women writers that interrogates the traditional power dynamics of classic literature, while touching on the deeper questions of women's true nature.
