Description

When Troy falls after ten brutal years of war, its women are left to endure the devastation, grief, and uncertain fate that follow. From queens and princesses to enslaved survivors, goddesses, and overlooked figures of myth, their interwoven stories reimagine the Trojan War and its aftermath through twenty-five female perspectives. Moving between the mortal and divine worlds, the novel explores the costs of conflict, the endurance of memory, and the ways women’s voices have been silenced or reshaped by history. Lyrical, incisive, and richly grounded in classical mythology, it offers a powerful new portrait of one of the ancient world’s most enduring legends.
