'A feast of gender-bending pleasures' THE BIG ISSUE
She keeps her eyes on me while she lights the end of my cigarette. I stare back at her. Something in the pills and in her eyes is opening up my muscles like hands parting from prayer, like trees breathing.
EROS is a stunning collection of short stories, grounded in truth and coloured with dazzling imagination and alluring, unpredictable mystery. Revealing how queerness, nature and myth have been intertwined for eternity, these are stories of gods and goddesses. Of Zeus, of Eurydice, of Hermaphroditus, of Icarus before he flew into the sun. Stories of queer life, lust, revenge, wrath, passion and sex. Of yearning, love, loss. Some transformations span across a life, and others, an evening. Perspectives will shift. Houses will burn. Lovers will learn their fate.
Zoe Terakes has skilfully blended myth and modernity to illuminate the complex and enduring truth of trans lives, resisting a history of erasure and delivering a sexy, soul-touching book to read to your lover . . . or yourself.
'Transness is not an abnormality of nature but a necessity of it. You'll find that refrain woven into EROS's tapestry, stitched into the way characters dive into the ocean, like they are returning to it' VOGUE©2026 Zoe Terakes (P)2026 Hachette Australia

Critic Reviews
Goddamn, these stories set my queer heart alight. In finally making queer and trans undertones of ancient Greek myths explicit, Zoe Terakes has forged something both classic and eternal, timely and timeless.
Mucky and sexy, violent and shocking, tender and joyful, and constantly surprising - this is a stunning debut
Transness is not an abnormality of nature but a necessity of it. You'll find that refrain woven into Eros's tapestry, stitched into the way characters dive into the ocean, like they are returning to it'
These are not your yiayia's myths . . . A feast of gender-bending pleasures . . . and goddess knows we need some trans pleasure right now
