Image of the Harpie, 1497
I’m struck by some images on a Kindle 🫤
from The Burning Man by Frances Wilson
@thedimpause Half woman, half bird? Magnus is to my knowledge only a mans name, at least historically. 🤔
@odd Magnus is certainly a man - just seems the author thought he looked (and possibly behaved!) like the Harpie in the image.
@thedimpause Anytime someone calls somebody a “shrieking harpy” I crack up. I don’t know why, but I just double over laughing every single time.
