The Women of Troy - Grand Format

Troy has fallen. The Greeks have won their bitter war. They can return home as victors - all they need is a good wind to lift their sails. But the seas have been becalmed by vengeful gods, and so the warriors remain in limbo - camped in the shadow of the city they destroyed, kept company by the women they stole from it. The women of Troy : Helen, Cassandra, Amina, Hecuba and Briseis. Briseis carrying her future in her womb : the unborn child of the dead hero Achilles.
Once again caught up in the disputes of violent men. Once again faced with the chance to shape history. Masterful and enduringly resonant, The Women of Troy continues Pat Barker's extraordinary retelling of one of our greatest classical myths, following on from the critically acclaimed The Silence of the Girls.
