Reviews

Natalie Haynes is a once-in-a-generation storyteller, and No Friend to This House is her masterpiece. Haynes does not so much retell the myth of Medea as excavate it, layer by devastating layer, for truths both timeless and timely. This is a stunning novel that cuts to the bone.
Witty, gripping, ruthless
An exceptionally powerful retelling of Medusa's story, an emotional gut punch of a novel . . . It is a dazzling achievement
Inventive and playful . . . [and] very funny
