Summer Essentials

In my family, spring and summer belong to my mother, while autumn and winter belong to my husband. So what is left for me?

For nine thousand years, Persephone has split her time between the underworld with her husband, the king of the dead, and on earth with her mother, the goddess of the harvest. But this spring, something feels different. The natural world is in chaos - with unexpected rains, irregular crop growth, and humans encroaching on the forests without resistance from her mother. Even the gods are losing control.

As Demeter struggles to regain her powers and protect her daughter from her husband's desire to keep her underground permanently, Persephone finds a newfound sense of liberation. She joins a group of activists, led by Snow, and experiences a sense of freedom she has never felt before. From the treetops, she sees the world in a new light and realizes the power of making choices for herself.

"No Season but the Summer" reimagines a classic myth and explores the consequences of when our age-old stories no longer serve us and the rules are no longer applicable. Above all, it is a story about the power of choice - the choices Persephone makes will have profound effects on her mother, her husband, and the new life growing inside her.
