Summary/Abstract: In her recent book of poetry, Belgian-born Spanish writer Chantal Maillard offers an interpretation of the Greek myth of Medea that deconstructs guilt by merging its individual, exceptional dimension into the common, universal one. The book appears therefore as an extension aiming to explore the very areas of the myth that have remained untold, at the crossroads with Maillard's own poetics and cognisance.
