Description
In a kingdom steeped in myth and divine intrigue, two sisters, Orual and Psyche, navigate a world where beauty is both a blessing and a curse. Orual, the elder and less favored, grapples with her own perceived ugliness and a fierce, possessive love for her radiant younger sister. When Psyche is offered as a sacrifice to a terrifying god, Orual's jealousy and devotion ignite a chain of events that will challenge their very understanding of love, faith, and the nature of the divine.
