“Achilles is dead dead. Let’s just be dead.”
Waiting is Hard when your Lover’s a Demigod. A Modern Retelling of a Nonexistent Greek Tragedy in Five Books.
After being unburied by his lover’s son, Patroclus must wait to be reunited with Achilles in the underworld. But waiting is difficult when you’re surrounded by your enemies and time doesn’t seem to make any sense. In a world of Ghosts and Gods, The Myrmidon explores longing, war, perception, and what it means to be truly seen.
