Hi little coven. When Laura Genn’s sapphic Hades & Persephone retelling came across my desk, I knew I had to talk to her about bringing the myth to life, and that our chat would be the perfect excuse to look more closely at how Persephone and her mother, Demeter, appear in the tarot’s imagery as creative muses.
You can listen to our conversation for free on the latest audio episode of The Shuffle, above. You can also follow the podcast on your preferred listening platform here.
Laura’s debut novel, Between Sun and Shadow, is out now.
