In Conversation with Zoe Terakes \u2013 Melt Festival 2025 Step into a world where ancient myth meets modern desire.
Eros: Queer Myths for Lovers is a bold, sensual collection of short stories by Australian writer Zoe Terakes, exploring the timeless power of queer love. Blending Greek mythology with contemporary life, these stories shimmer with intimacy, rage, lust and longing – all told through the lens of trans and queer experience.
From Aphrodite and Icarus to Hermaphroditus and Zeus, the gods walk among us in these lyrical, electric tales. Sometimes they burn bright over a single night. Sometimes they echo across a lifetime. In Terakes’ hands, myth becomes memory, sex becomes scripture, and the body becomes divine.
With raw emotion and poetic clarity, Eros: Queer Myths for Lovers resists erasure and celebrates the messy, aching, beautiful truth of queer lives past, present and future.
Perspectives will shift. Houses will burn. Lovers will learn their fate.
Don’t miss this exquisite journey into passion, power, and identity.
