Taken from Slavic mythology and folklore, she is a hybrid narrative of two mythical female figures that drowned sacrificing themselves or being sacrificed, and of a personal history.

Emerging as partly woman partly animal partly monstrous partly revenge partly victim partly run-away-bride in unhappy unhappy love with something of her partly remained. She remembers the bitterness of her death, while she makes sense of her living. The body is drowning, but give it time.

Looking at how self-sacrifice characterizes the very image of femininity in the West,
“Of Another glory” wonders how myths mirror present narratives and puts the destiny of femininity into question.
