About this item
by Maia Brown-Jackson (Author)
Gifted by Maia Brown-Jackson lives at the junction of dystopian fantasy, feminist manifesto, and poetic narrative. Skillfully blending the genres of mythology, science fiction, romance, and horror with the sarcastic narration of Death and a Greek chorus, and imbued with the energy of modern YA Lit. Gifted's self-aware heroine openly defies the cliche of being the "chosen one" and instead seeks to find her self-worth as more than merely a hero. In this speculative and repressive future, eerily reminiscent of the crisis of our present, Brown-Jackson asks her reader to question the role they've been assigned in life.
Gifted asks us to consider, when faced with a cause in which we truly believe, what might we be willing to sacrifice?
