Cassandra, Clytie, and Syrinx. Three women who were failed by the men in their lives, three women who took matters into their own hands, three women separated by time but united in their rage. Hear Her Screams is a bind up of the three Greek Mythology feminist horror shorts written by Savannah James: Cassandra, Clytie, and Syrinx. Please make sure to read the trigger warnings before continuing forward.
Savannah James is an author that is dedicated to writing the stories she loves while sprinkling in some much needed representation for type one diabetics such as herself. She primarily writes romance, but she also dabbles in poetry and horror. When she’s not writing, she can be found reading, journaling, playing Minecraft, watching movies, jamming to Taylor Swift, and spending time with her family and puppies.
I am a big fan of these horror stories! They are short, creepy, and are pure feminine rage in the best way. The fact that they are based off of greek myths adds a really cool element to each story. Even though I’m not knowledgable in greek mythology, I enjoyed looking up the original stories and linking it back to what I was reading. The vibes are great for this book, especially if you start off the first book listening to Cassandra by Taylor Swift. Such a good vibe.
