Description
Ceto, the youngest of three siren sisters, escapes a life defined by hunger and captivity by trading her tail for land—and then discovers that motherhood and reinvention can be just as confining as any myth. When she flees with her daughter Naia to the ocean, she builds Sirenland: a women-led spectacle where sirens perform in a cliffside tank and a kingdom of her own making seems to offer freedom on her terms. But as Naia grows into her own power, a death at Sirenland forces both mother and daughter to confront what they’ve sacrificed, what they’ve controlled, and what “empowerment” costs when it’s built on performance. With lyrical, myth-infused storytelling and a sharp focus on power, hunger, and agency, this novel asks whether a world can truly be liberated—or only re-staged—when the spotlight is always on you.
