 lenavis 2009-11-18 . chapter 1so uh, Persephone was deflowered? figuratively and literally? right? (I'm really just guessing here)
again, this was pretty incredible writing. |
 Hed in the Cloudz 2008-06-07 . chapter 1You write beautifully! I love how you depict Demeter's connection with the earth-- even if you hadn't said who she was, we would know. You describe things with perfect language, and the little montage of images is wonderful!
I'm rather confused by one thing, though. Why is it that things grow cold? Persephone should, if anything, end up warmer, assuming that she's taken by Hades as in the original myth, and it should be Demeter who causes the cold. I think that I like your new take, but I'm curious as to why you decided to tell the story in this way.
(By the way, I'm ever so sorry for taking so long to get back to you!) |
 BlackestOpal 2008-05-25 . chapter 1Oh my gods.
That is beautiful.
It is creepy and amazing.
I've never read anything like that before. |
 Bazooka Joy 2008-04-14 . chapter 1Very poetic. Amazing imagery. |
 Napoleonic 2008-04-14 . chapter 1A fascinating portrayal of Demeter's POV and fierce love for her daughter. Your description reaches all the senses, something a lot of people forget to take into account when writing. |
 Aiko-Moon 2008-04-14 . chapter 1this is really good
like unbilievably good |
 Thenardier 2008-04-01 . chapter 1Such accuracy in portraying these mythological beings, yet making them so tangible. I love this. |
 AchtungBabyAchtung 2008-03-19 . chapter 1I see what you mean, I like the picture of a worried persephone, and the feral Demeter, it works beautifully. I liek the classical style too, the personification of the wild - it makes the inhuman qualities of Demeter contrast with the more human ones.
