Description
Even a goddess needs to vent.
Meet Pele, Hawaiian goddess of the volcanoes. Meet Katherine O'Dell, recently and reluctantly divorced, stranded on the Island of Hawai'i after her husband has left her. A trained therapist, Katherine has no choice but to hang her shingle in the hopes of making ends meet. What follows is an unlikely encounter, one that can transform Katherine for life or threaten to consume what little she has left.
Originally published in the anthology, Don't Look Back: Hawaiian Myths Made New (Watermark Publishing, 2011) and forthcoming in Ike P?p?lua: Science Fiction & Fantasy from the Hawaiian Islands (Mutual Publishing 2023), Darien Gee's original short story celebrates Hawai'i's long tradition of storytelling and myth-making. Written with humor and an eye for detail, Gee has created a modern view of the goddess and her impact on those lucky enough to call Hawai'i home.
This edition includes a conversation with the author, discussion questions, and an excerpt from the Hawai'i-based women's fiction novel, Sweet Life, written by Mia King.
