Jennifer Saint’s Ariadne turns the story of the Minotaur to focus on his sister Ariadne whose story is pushed aside after she guides the hero Theseus through the labyrinth. Saint chats with us about how mythology narrative often punishes the women adjacent to a male hero, why we crave female perspective, and the emotional weight of being the mother of a monster.
