Women and Troy

Work:: Women and Troy (S2124273576)

As war-clouds gather and break over Troy, they threaten to consume the city's women, including Queen Hekabe (aka Hecuba), the stalwart matriarch, Cassandra, her prophetess-daughter, and, caught in the crossfire, the Greek Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world. All emerge from mythology as living, breathing, three-dimensional characters, whose stories are more relevant today than ever - and their increasingly intense and claustrophobic journey has a surprisingly upbeat ending.
