The Women of Troy: A Novel

The Iliad of Troy Women is a groundbreaking feminist retelling of Homer's classic epic poem, told from the perspective of the women who endured the war.

Pat Barker, Booker Prize-winning author and "one of contemporary literature’s most thoughtful and compelling writers" (The Washington Post), delivers an extraordinary follow-up to The Silence of the Girls. In this gripping audiobook, Briseis, a former Trojan queen once owned by Achilles, takes center stage as she navigates the aftermath of Troy's fall and seeks her path to revenge.

Alongside Priam's aged wife Hecuba and the disgraced soothsayer Calchas, Briseis forges alliances and plots her revenge against the Greeks who have taken control of the city. With a focus on the untold stories of the women of Troy, The Iliad of Troy Women is a powerful exploration of feminism, power, and revenge.
