"I am a lion. and I will die a lion, for no human woman will ever love me."
We head to Persia this week to discuss the novel Beast by Donna Jo Napoli! Our fourth Beauty and the Beast retelling this month explores the Beast's point of view, here the scholar prince Orasmyn, transformed into a lion as punishment for a hubristic mistake. We explore Orasmyn's antics as he's stuck in the body of a lion, his relationship with religion, his dynamic with this version of Belle, the use of language, and our frustration with ending of this book.
